2 Corinthians 4:18

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

2 Corinthians 4:18. While we look not at the things which are seen,-

Alas for us if we did!

2 Corinthians 4:18. But at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal;

Temporal and temporary; see how they melt away one after another!

2 Corinthians 4:18. But the things which are not seen are eternal.

The substance is beyond the river, the shadows are here. God help us to look for the substance, and to claim it as our own, and let none of us try to grasp the shadows which would be worthless if we could ever hold them in our hands!
