Deep Spiritual Knowledge is Conditional
Ephesians 3:4-6
Whereby, when you read, you may understand my knowledge in the mystery of Christ)…


We know not Christ aright till we are conformed to what we know of Him. The pure in heart see the pure and holy God. When the lady said to Mr. Turner (the painter), "Sir, I have seen that spot many times, but I never saw that which you have pictured." "No, ma'am," he replied, "I dare say you have not; but don't you wish you could?" The artist's eye sees what another eye cannot, and the pure in heart can see in God what no one else can see, because they are like to God.

(C. H. Spurgeon.)
