What the world has drained into the mind
through exposure
does not all disappear in an instant
when Christ is recognized Savior.
But the Word of God is strong and powerful—
Consistently looked into intently,
and received in practice as The Authority,
it will delete the images of former influences
bit by bit.
Vision fragmented by multiple world views
will become clear and direct.
Then again He laid His hands on his eyes;
and he looked intently and was restored,
and began to see everything clearly.
Mark 8:25 NASB
But one who looks intently at the perfect law,
the law of liberty, and abides by it,
not having become a forgetful hearer but an effectual doer,
this man will be blessed in what he does.
James 1:25 NASB
Pure and undefiled religion
in the sight of our God and Father is this:
to visit orphans and widows in their distress,
and to keep oneself unstained by the world.
James 1:27 NASB
And do not be conformed to this world,
but be transformed by the renewing of your mind,
so that you may prove what the will of God is,
that which is good and acceptable and perfect.
Romans 12:2 NASB
Your eye is the lamp of your body.
When your eyes are good, your whole body also is full of light.
But when they are bad, your body also is full of darkness.
Luke 11:34
Light is sweet, and it pleases the eyes to see the sun.
Ecclesiastes 11:7
The precepts of the LORD are right, giving joy to the heart.
The commands of the LORD are radiant, giving light to the eyes.
Psalm 19:8
