Would it not be wise for each one to ask himself the question, "What seest thou" (Zech. 4:2)? This question is a test of mental self-knowledge. It opens the door of thought and challenges concepts. Let each one ask himself, "Am I seeing the human or the divine, the temporal or the eternal?"
Through material observation one sees himself a mortal, subjected to mortal mind's imperfections and limitations. He is self-condemned by his vacillation between sickness and health, discord and harmony, the unreal and the real. He is without stability, promise, or security because he imputes power to mortal beliefs, although God is the only power.
When judging by material vision, one sees but dimly the answer to the question, "What seest thou?" Finite sense sees through a mist which limits, restricts, and blurs one's concept of God and man and thus impedes his spiritual progress. Truth requires that one unsee error and reverse mortal mind's unreliable testimony, with its mistaken sense of things, in order to see and experience the supremacy of God, good.
