Cant i see both my sin and my redemption at the same time? I struggle to follow the good things we are taught, and i may stumble at times, but i keep trying, even so i see my failures and i am humbled. However, i also see a complete new man in heaven. So i see both the old and the new at the same time.
Just some thoughts.
If our eye is single ...
Being nevertheless (or not by thought obtained), where one is at in the journey in is where one is at, there being only one who leads us into the one with the Father that we are.
The patterns laid out in scripture of the process of one that became two, and then was narrowed back to one again relate to this process of two in us. Jesus made the two one in himself long before he ever made it to a cross, I could go as far as to say he was one from the beginning which Jesus eluded to when he said restore me to the glory we had before the world was, which glory he identified as the Father's own self and is relative to every son or one born of the spirit as to where they came from.
The first perception of duality as it relates self (in the Bible) was when God said Let there be light (where the separation from heaven and earth begins (the dust man is made of (light not being called out of heaven, but out of darkness) all dealing with perception/images/pictures of truth.
When God called the light good night became evil by default (two fruits(sons) of a tree. By the word is knowledge, it's fist image it casts is a duality concerning self when the motive is based upon gain.
We are not learning to war, we are learning to rest, to be in him is to be in the father, in a glory that was before the world was, which is a truth brought down to a single thought, past the thought to be.
The process serves it's purpose, but every wandering must come to an end, both individually, and collectively. (this is a truth down to a single thought, and why the cross, or the feast of Passover, or the commandment not to eat is the wisdom of God, words that one lives by.
