Physical and Spiritual Mysteries The farmer who turns up the ground and sows the seed seldom pauses to reflect on the mystery of its growth. Even the philosopher who understands the wonderful process of vegetation is conscious of difficulties he cannot solve in its several stages toward maturity. The farmer doesnt refuse to sow the seed because he cant see the actual plant in it. A sperm cell is almost invisible, yet it contains the full potential for a perfect human organism. Think of the mystery in such natural phenomena. We accept them because we cant live without them. God hasnt given us the freedom to reject natural laws and mysterious phenomena in connection with our physical lives. But He has chosen to give us the ability to reject His spiritual laws and not immediately feel the consequences. If we refuse to eat well die. There are no two ways about it. But in the spiritual realm we feel no immediate physical impact of disobedience to Gods laws. There is a spiritual consequence, but those who have no spiritual sensibility or life dont feel it. It would be just like inflicting punishment on a corpse; it couldnt feel it. Just so the spiritually dead cant feel the spiritual consequences of their disobedience.
