Blogger Idol Week 14-Spirituality
What is spirituality? Excuse me while I borrow something from Mr. Harmless
Spirituality: The state, quality, manner, or fact of being spiritual.
ok, but what does that mean? What does being spiritual look like? And who defines what is spiritual? Can someone wake up one morning and instantly decide to be spiritual?
Romans 12:1, “Therefore I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, acceptable to God, which is your spiritual service of worship.” So our spiritual service is to present ourselves to God, as sacrifices. That certaintly wasn’t the first thing that came to my mind. I was thinking more along the lines of those people that know every verse in the bible and seem to be above sin. But God doesn’t define spirituality that way. It is something that is obtained through a sacrifice of ourselves and a pledging of our whole bodies to Christ.
I Cor 15: 46 “However, the spiritual is not first, but the natural; then the spiritual” We are not inately spiritual beings. We are born into sin and have no capability of being spiritual. We may do right things, but only after we accept Christ are we changed into being spiritual. TO BE CONTINUED>>>
