Ah, of course not, but the surgeon still can, and the real Jesus still

But let's not get hung up on the little analogy, it deals only with
the question of belief. There is no doubt that the real Jesus is who
he is and can act regardless of what any of us thinks. That's not
where the problem lies, at least not for me. It's the rest that makes
me hesitate: if we are in him and he in us, can we continue to be so
mistaken? As Lance and you point out, we are all mistaken to some
degree. Although I imagine some here would disagree with that.

The Bible says that we will know the truth. The Bible also says God's
ways are higher than our ways, and since we cannot understand all His
ways, we do not have all truth. I do not see this as a contradiction.
He has given and continues to give enough truth so that we may know Him
and live a life that pleases Him. We know what He wants and we know
what He hates and that knowledge is growing as we study and discuss the
Word. Some day, if we are true to what we know, we will know as God
knows. In the meantime, love your neighbor. :)
