I have never read Paradise Lost, nor do I know anything about John Milton or his beliefs. I cannot endorse either, nor can I speak against them.
All I can say is that this quote speaks to me.
“The mind is its own place, and in itself can make a Heaven of Hell, a Hell of Heaven.”
― John Milton, Paradise Lost
Yahweh has been showing me recently that the way you see the world is the key to what you experience, how you live, and how much you are able to grow and make a difference. Everybody sees the world differently. That is good and that is right, for we all have different purposes and metrons in Yahweh to steward. We are not all kings of the same region, but we are all kings in Him.
Problems don't arise from seeing from different perspectives. Problems arise when we look at anything but Yahweh. When we look at Yahweh, we can see all other things through Him. When we look away from Him, we see shadows and illusions--things that should never be.
When we look at Yahweh, we see and abide in Heaven.
When we look away from Him, we see and abide in Hell.
Let us look to Yahweh and let us allow Him to show us Himself in ever expanding and increasing measures. Let's explore Heaven together.
