Matthew 6:22
"The light of the body is the eye: if therefore
thine eye be single, thy whole body
shall be full of light."
The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, which is translated from the Greek word "Haplous." So what does it mean by thine eye being "single?" It means singleness, simplicity, absence of folds. In other words it means the eyes are clear, what the eye sees, it then enters the mind, for the mind is the seat of intellectual and spiritual activity it thinks but also controls one's thoughts, or one's inner attitude of mind. And then to the heart which is the seat of passions where the Holy Spirit dwells.
What the eye sees does not involve stupidity when it comes to Christians, but prudence. Knowing how to deal with fellow humans and the circumstances of life. There is no duplicity and he is prudent, sensible, using practical wisdom without the willingness to hurt the fellow man.
Remember the old saying, "My eyes or mind are playing tricks on me? But you never hear one say, my heart played a trick on me today. That's because the heart don't play tricks, because God don't play tricks! My Friend, God gave us the ability to see, think and to have passion, but when we use these ability's the eye must be clear, if not, the mind can and will process it to be something that it's not. Which could change our feelings and passions from being incorruptible to corrupted nature.
My Friends, stay in union with God and all shall be well! "For your obedience is come abroad unto all men. I am glad therefore on your behalf: but yet I would have you wise unto that which is good, and simple concerning evil. And the God of peace shall bruise Satan under your feet shortly. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you," (Rom. 16:19-20).
Amen!
