2 Corinthians 5:7 Douay-Rheims

(For we walk by faith, and not by sight.)

Methodius of Olympus

c. A.D. 260–311 Patristic

For the "house in heaven," with which we desire to be "clothed," is immortality; with which, when we are clothed, every weakness and mortality will be entirely "swallowed up" in it, being consumed by endless life. "For we walk by faith, not by sight;" that is, for we still go forward by faith, viewing the things which are beyond with a darkened understanding, and not clearly, so that we may see these things, and enjoy them, and be in them.
