Adapting, or Adoption

If the ‘god’ of this world has in fact blinded the minds of the unbelieving so that they might not see the light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, is it any wonder then how a ‘believer’ (one adopted-received into God’s family) can continue to abide in much blindness when considering all of the religious imprinting that has defined who they continue to think they are?

Is it the Father’s intention to bring continual revelation to His son’s wherein they can know and experience the truth (reality) of what it means to BE His, or is it all about just putting on a good show?
To the degree that ‘truth’ remains nothing more than an abstract concept, rather that it being all about the person of Truth, Christ in us, is it any wonder we are looked upon as just another religious sect?
