Does Sin Keep Us From Seeing the Glory of God?

A line from this article, gave me pause to think and pray "Lord touch my eyes that I might see!"



From A Restored Harmony in Creation:



"An example is given in the Eastern Christian understanding of the Transfiguration. In the Christian East, Christ is understood to have continuously radiated the glory of God but, because of human sin, people saw only a man. At the Transfiguration, however, it was the sight of Peter, James and John that was transfigured. The icons show the light radiating from Christ and touching the eyes of Peter, James and John, who thus see Christ as he truly is, with the whole of creation reflecting his glory."
