"The Bible doesn't make any sense"
Before you journey to the underworld
May I please show you what's in the word?
With your permission and patience
Please allow me to bring something into your attention!
The Bible is spiritual
written to spiritual beings
about spiritual things!
Please get my point
The natural mind can not understand what's above and beyond the natural!
I get it,this might not make sense too
It's like trying to explain light to a person born blind,funny but it's true!
Life is Spiritual,
I pray that your eyes be opened to see what's beyond the natural!
Faith,our additional sense
Teaching us principles that naturally would never make any sense
Well this is not common sense
To some,it's nonsense!
Christianity is beyond words
Again,how could one explain light to a person born blind?
If I could,I would and maybe convince you that there's more beyond the natural!
Life is spiritual,
And I pray that your eyes be opened to see what's beyond the natural!
A short story
That might change something in you for His glory!
I once was a kid
So young,obedient and everything they told me to do,I did
As I grew up
Some things began to change,
And i felt as if I was travelling through a foreign town using an outdated map!
I knew I wasn't getting any better
My actions slowly started to matter
I'd ask the whys for doing things I never had a problem doing before!
With every ounce of reason
Gaining the capacity to decide what's right or wrong for me,
Locked me in prison
Of my own thoughts,and dirty mind
In which I couldn't let anybody in!
I began to see the flaws in my own nature,
And through these dirty eyes I could see my destructive future!
I sought for the light,but I was never ready to expose my shame
I needed salvation but couldn't allow people to see my chains!
I was a prisoner,
Most people blinded by the wit before their eyes couldn't see beyond the reason,nah!
I was dying in silence
And day after day I could hope for the voices in my head to be silent!
I knew that there is a God somewhere,
I had a conviction that God had my freedom and yet,all I could do was pretend like He doesn't exist,to Me that was wisdom,you see!
The root of all that,was in divorcing the good life of sin,
Believe you me,sin is great and I enjoyed it!
I was unwilling to let go of all that vibe and YOLO life!
To be honest,I never thought anything could be better than that!
But then I learnt the most important truth
Someone said and I quote,"never live in the moment of pleasure,and a lifetime of regrets"
You see when everything was great,and pleasure was the only thing I could live for, I realised that human life is like vapour,here today and gone tomorrow!
I decided to give this "Jesus" a chance
And see,what He's got to offer me
Honestly,I thought I could do Him
And still be me!
I was doing Church,
I'd be inside a church building,dancing to every song they played,shouting to every praise they sang and screaming hallelujah to every word the preacher says
Who was I fooling?
The God who sees beneath the mask? Or the people who were not affected by my hypocrisy?
I robbed myself of the experience of God,
Which is odd cause I thought I was being smart in my own heart!
I had lived in the darkness of my own creation,
I had locked myself in my own prison, kept myself bound by broken shackles!
I wasn't blind anymore I had closed my eyes
but upon hearing these words and I quote "man shall never experience unity with God without separation from the world"
I knew this was not just a word!
I decided to free myself from myself cause Christ had already set me free from the enemy
And my biggest enemy now,was the inner me!
His Word gained residence in me
And as though I saw light for the first time
I realised,that life is Spiritual!
