Is it real?

In the realm of appearances, there is constant evidence of good and evil, both outside and inside us. If we judge by appearances, we arrive at the logical conclusion that we are both good and bad. That looksentirely valid. Christians have believed this for centuries. Except for a small minority who have come to know their true identity in Christ, the whole Christian world accepts the lie. Unfortunately, although something may not be true above the line [in the eternal realm], if below the line [in the temporal realm] we think it is true, it still controls us.— The Rest of the Gospel: When the partial Gospel has worn you out, page 90

The same story as it has always been, we walk by faith and not by sight. But, if we believe sight, then faith goes out the window.
