The Eye Single

by John Lundell, C. Menyennett (Illustrator), C. Menyennett (Editor)

Overview

Jesus gave a simple commandment: "What I say unto you I say unto all, Watch." He asked, "Could you not watch with me one hour?" The Eye Single is about obeying His instruction and following His example. The eye single is life in the Spirit, watching for and with Jesus. In watchings, prophets saw visions, Paul received revelation, and Jesus communed with our Father.

Physically, watching is being alert, attentive and seeing with no thought and no desire, just awareness. Spiritually, it is much more. Watching is knowledge of God: "Be still and know that I am God."

You come alive in the Spirit when you watch. You become as He is-wholly aware, for "the eyes of the Lord are in every place, beholding the evil and the good." You see Jesus, you see God. For Jesus is God, and "God is light." "If therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light." "Believe in the light, that ye may be the children of light."

Watching is Jesus' way, which is the only way, to union with God. His life is the spiritual blood that unites each one of us. His way transcends all others: "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." Watch to see Jesus. He is here-now. He came back the moment He left. When He ascended into Spirit, He returned in the Spirit. His presence remains.

Watch, and experience the "peace of God, which passeth all understanding." Unbound, as "an heir of God through Christ," you have everything to gain. Watch to "see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven."

About the Author

John is retired from the DM&IR Railway after pulling throttle for thirty years. Along the way, he graduated from university, attended seminary, and raised nine wonderful children. As a young man, John Lundell was a military policeman in Saigon during the Vietnam War. The intensity of that experience transformed his Christian faith. He came to realize that the most important experience was experience of God, and the most important knowledge, knowledge of God. On his return to the USA, he studied Scripture and read voraciously looking for answers-from Pseudo-Dionysius the Areopagite to Meister Eckhart and Carl Jung; the Bhagavad Gita, the Tao Te Ching, The Secret of the Golden Flower and others. In response to prayer, Jesus revealed to him through dream and vision the Biblical teaching of watching. One only needs eyes to see! For the way to the experience and knowledge of God is hidden in plain sight. Jesus stated it clearly: What I say unto you I say unto all, Watch. The idea for a book on Jesus' neglected commandment, given in Mark 13:37, began to take shape. The result was The Eye Single, a book about the life-changing power of watching for and with Jesus-the grace of stillness in the presence of God.
