Exploring the Beliefs of the Christian Israelite Church
Seeing Beyond What Is Visible
A modern illustration to explore timeless Biblical truth
Sydney ~ Saturday 28 March 2026 ~ 1:30–4:00pm
How do we know what is real?
New technologies like Smart Glasses are changing how we see the world. They can overlay information, translate speech in real time and present images that are not physically present — yet they are based on real data.
But long before this technology existed, the Bible spoke about another way of seeing.
The Apostle Paul wrote:
“Now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face.”
(1 Corinthians 13:12)
This seminar uses the illustration of emerging technology to explore a deeper question:
Is there a spiritual reality that we do not naturally see?
