I agree with Gary, though, we are to spread the seed and move along, let God do the heavy lifting. I have friends that I defended to my wife for years were "good guys" and I was setting them straight...it didn't turn out that way at all.

ooo yes I like thee above..Also I just wanted to say that if your bf is a christain he should be careful because of different spirits people carry around them. You really dont want that to jump on your bf or get into your house.
Pray, pray, Pray!

Yes, I have seen someone with eyes like that and he is now a pedophile in prison.


I'm sorry, but I am entirely uncomfortable with the notion that "how someones eyes look to you" can have anything to do with their value as a person. I worked with a man who had very nice eyes and a cheerful demeanor...who is also now in prison for pedophelia!! Who new?

To start using a bit of scripture (out of context) as an excuse to be suspicious of people is a dangerous road to travel indeed.
Heaven forbid any of you should meet me when I have not had much sleep, I'm sure my eyes would look sunken, dark and forboding...does that mean I am under demonic influence? <evil laugh>

I not suggesting hanging out with anyone but I have known a man like that who had physical problems as the root cause- I am more than sure some people have hurt him needlessly.

I do belive you can tell alot about a person from their eyes.

That is not judging their value as a person because you could not fairly predict their morals and values based on that alone.

You can see sadness, tiredness, fear and so on in someone's eyes.

Also I believe God gives Christians discernment concerning others, don't you?

Visual clues can be accurate, or entirely misleading. I agree that we CAN discern much from a person’s eye's (just ask a poker player) but I would not make decisions about a person based on appearance alone. If I'm not willing to go a little deeper than that with a person, I would prefer to avoid making potentially inaccurate assessments. In the case described in the in this thread, however, there seems to be enough evidence to be cautious with this individual. Shunning him entirely is not the necessarily the answer since Jesus Himself was loudly criticized for spending time with sinners…the key though is whether you are likely to influence the individual positively, or end up being lead astray yourself.

Well, in my humble opinion, I think some people have more of an ability to see a persons soul through the eyes than others. A sort of discernment, as I see it.

I did know one individual whom was just evil. Every word that came out of the mans mouth was straight from the enemy, a drug dealer, he was. He had the most evil eyes I had ever seen in person. They were completely without life, the eyes of a heartless predator. The eyes do reveal a great deal about what's inside a person.

I think a person's spiritual development has some effect on how they appear physically, as well. I can tell a shy girl from a nosy girl by their cheeks and nose. Most anyone can discern a mans tenacity by looking at his chin. Many ancient cultures knew how to tell a great deal about a person from their facial structure.

A persons face, and everything about it, I think is meant to communicate what kind of person they are. Our culture has just lost this understanding, glorifying particular genetics and facial structures in the media while masking their reasons. The average "super-model" has many similarities in facial structure to a 7 year old child, I read in one study.

I recall an old Jewish story of interest about a man who had the ability to paint a persons face perfectly, who was commissioned by one who could read faces as you describe. He was commissioned to paint the face of none other than Moses himself...and traveled to meet him, completed a painting of Moses visage and returned it to the man.

The man who commissioned the work was astounded upon looking at Moses face. “This is the face of the great Hebrew prophet, the one man among men who has ventured closer to the creator than any other? But this is the face of a murderer!”

Indeed Moses WAS a murderer; he slew an Egyptian for mistreating a Hebrew slave and his face carried the record of that deed ever more…but Moses, like each of us, had the same potential to change his soul in spite of his face. It is wise to remember that we are not bodies with souls, but souls attached to temporal bodies.
