WRONG
Even though Captain Quiros had landed on an island in Vanuatu he thought that he had arrived
at the great unknown land of the south and thus
In the year 1606 Capt. Pedro Fernandez de Quiros gave the name “Australia del Espiritu Santo”
or literally “Southland of the Holy Spirit”.
In fact de Quiros’s actual proclamation was as follows:
“Let the heavens, the earth, the waters with all their creatures and all those present witness that I, Captain Pedro Fernandez de Quiros…..in the name of Jesus Christ ...... hoist this emblem of the Holy Cross on which His (Jesus Christ’s) person was crucified and whereon He gave His life for the ransom and remedy of all the human race….
on this Day of Pentecost, 14 May 1606….. I, take possession of all this part of the South as far as
the pole in the name of Jesus….
Which from now on shall be called the Southern land of the Holy Ghost.
"La Austrialia del Espiritu Santo"

Hmmmm ? OK then the earth is not cursed and we do walk by sight as if his kingdom does come by observation. Can't serve two masters . (one) The things we see and (two) that not seen .Can we ?
The Pharisees like those who claim some sort of Pentecostal faith were required to walk by sight before they would believe. They stumbled over the cross.
Luke 17:20 And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation:
I love Australia spent three weeks . But no matter where we go as that seen there we are. No matter where the Holy Spirit not seen goes there he is.
2Corinthians 5:7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight
