Sent to open their eyes

Key Verse: Acts 26:22-23
God is light and Jesus is the light, so we must become children of light. Therefore, hearing God's church should be open spiritual eyes in order to know God's intentions. Eye is the lamp of the body. If our eyes are bright, then it all becomes clear. If not, then all is darkness.
By God's help, the Apostle Paul were alive to tell of what had previously been notified by the prophets and Moses, namely, that Christ should suffer and be the first to rise from the dead, and He will shew light unto the people, Jews and Gentiles . Evidence that light to preach to us, Christ must suffer. If not received God's grace, we still live in darkness, in which there is: eating, drinking, mating-mawin, and violence.
In the days of Noah, all the people who live in darkness punished by the flood. While Noah and his family who live in the light, was saved. Christ as head is the Savior of the body, namely the trial the bride of God. Christ has risen, given to us as Chief / Husband / Spouse of Heaven (Ephesians 1:19-23). As chief, he channeled the light to his body. Therefore, we must not live in darkness, but accept the news that light.
The Apostle Paul said that he was divinely appointed to be servants and witnesses, was sent to Israel and the heathen, to open their eyes, that they may turn from darkness to light, from the power of Satan to God (Acts 26:16-18). Similarly with us, God's will that we become witnesses of all that we've seen and what God will show us later.
By witnessing what we have seen from God's blessing, the blessing will continue to flow. If not, that blessing can turn into a disaster, such as continuous water dammed so the resulting floods. We need to bear witness to open their eyes, because many of God's church is still blind spiritual eyes, not yet open.
Isaiah 44:18 says, eyes closed inherent make can not see. Create a closed heart can not understand. Such persons will be hard to come to the light so it is always in the dark street. Justice remains distant from him and the truth is not up to him. He walked with groping the wall like the blind (chapter 59:9-10). Actually, God's hand is not long enough to save and his ear is no less keen to hear our prayer (verses 1-3). Which is the separator between us and God is all evil and sin, because we still live in darkness.
People who live in the dark will feel that God is very far away from him so that he did not hear his prayers and help. The darkness of sin and wickedness is a wall of separation between him and God, the hands are defiled by the evil blood and fingers, and mouths that have spoken lies, and the tongue has muttered perversity. Although he looked forward to the light, there is only darkness alone, waiting for the light but he walked in the darkness. As a result, he fumbled the wall like blind men, and as if no eyes, so that stumble at noon as at dusk, sitting in the dark like the dead. Against us they were sent by God to open their spiritual eyes, to see the Bride Biblical Teaching.
The story in Luke 24:25-32 is a picture of Christians who have to walk or live with Jesus, came to worship at the church and was baptized, but did not know Him. God made them to recognize Him by preaching the Word, and explain the Scriptures, from the books of Moses and all the prophets (Bible study), then continues with the breaking of bread (communion). When the students feel that their hearts so burning or burnt. By Bible study and communion, our eyes become open / dicelikkan to know the Lord Jesus. Furthermore, in paragraph 36-39, the introduction to Jesus becomes clear: there are hands and feet that can be touched. He also said, "Peace be with you!" When our eyes have been opened so it can see and recognize Jesus as the Bridegroom of Heaven, then our hearts there is peace.
