Those that are of age still have the memories of when they were 𝐲𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐠 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐭; before the cold cruel world formed a 𝐜𝐞𝐫𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐚𝐫𝐨𝐮𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐧𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞, to pose as a defense mechanism that corresponds to the outside environment.

 

𝐎𝐮𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐥𝐲 𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐞 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐠𝐮𝐢𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐯𝐢𝐞𝐰𝐩𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐟𝐚𝐥𝐬𝐞 𝐢𝐧𝐟𝐨𝐫𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧; that lives solely from presumed notions that we feel are right and full of prejudices, whereas, the flesh has beguiled us, and then we then decide to pick up the Holy Bible. We actually read the Holy Bible with terrene eyes, 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐲 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝, 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐞 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐢𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐤𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐘𝐇𝐕𝐇 𝐜𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦’𝐬 𝐛𝐨𝐝𝐲 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐝𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐢𝐬 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐦𝐲 𝐛𝐚𝐜𝐤𝐲𝐚𝐫𝐝, 𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐩𝐢𝐫𝐢𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐘𝐇𝐕𝐇 𝐛𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐝 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐨 𝐀𝐝𝐚𝐦 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐚𝐢𝐫, 𝐨𝐫 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐨𝐟 the 𝐤𝐧𝐨𝐰𝐥𝐞𝐝𝐠𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐠𝐨𝐨𝐝 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐥 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞 𝐨𝐟 𝐥𝐢𝐟𝐞 𝐢𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐩𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐨𝐮𝐭𝐬𝐢𝐝𝐞 𝐦𝐲 𝐩𝐡𝐲𝐬𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐥 𝐡𝐨𝐮𝐬𝐞𝐬 𝐞𝐭𝐜., then with this mind, we decided to approach the Bible as if we have some true understanding.

 

We all feel this book called the Bible, will answer some of these unanswered questions; but, to our disappointment, it 𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐮𝐬 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐦𝐨𝐫𝐞 𝐪𝐮𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐚𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐰𝐞𝐫𝐬, and we all wonder why. Why don’t I see or hear the Heavenly Father??? What are these stories to me??? How can these stories help me???

 

The strange thing about this is that, 𝐖𝐄 𝐍𝐄𝐕𝐄𝐑 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐏 𝐓𝐎 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐍𝐊 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐄 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐈𝐒 𝐀 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐋 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐖𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐓𝐄𝐍 𝐁𝐘 𝐌𝐀𝐍 𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐇𝐄𝐀𝐕𝐄𝐍𝐋𝐘 𝐅𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐀 𝐇𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐄𝐑 𝐍𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐄 𝐓𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐖𝐄 𝐏𝐎𝐒𝐒𝐄𝐒𝐒; 𝐁𝐔𝐓 𝐘𝐄𝐓, 𝐖𝐄 𝐃𝐎 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐋𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐀𝐓 𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐎𝐖𝐍 𝐒𝐓𝐀𝐓𝐄 𝐎𝐅 𝐁𝐄𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐖𝐇𝐈𝐋𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐒𝐏𝐈𝐑𝐈𝐓𝐔𝐀𝐋 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊.

 

 The truth of the matter is that 𝐖𝐄 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐃𝐈𝐍𝐆 𝐓𝐇𝐈𝐒 𝐁𝐎𝐎𝐊 𝐖𝐈𝐓𝐇 𝐎𝐔𝐑 𝐅𝐀𝐋𝐒𝐄 𝐏𝐄𝐑𝐒𝐎𝐍𝐀𝐋𝐈𝐓𝐘; 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐃𝐄𝐅𝐄𝐍𝐒𝐄 𝐀𝐏𝐏𝐀𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐒 𝐓𝐇𝐀𝐓 𝐖𝐀𝐒 𝐆𝐄𝐍𝐄𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐄𝐃 𝐁𝐘 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐎𝐋𝐃 𝐂𝐑𝐔𝐄𝐋 𝐖𝐎𝐑𝐋𝐃. Some of us, not most of us, give up there; but, there are some who go to churches and institutions to hear the Bible preached by what we think to be pious men and women, but to our detriment, we realize that these men and women know less than we do.

 

𝐓𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐩𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐩𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐫𝐞 𝐧𝐨𝐭 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐧 𝐥𝐢𝐯𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐮𝐩 𝐭𝐨 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐬𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐟𝐢𝐜𝐢𝐚𝐥 𝐦𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐁𝐢𝐛𝐥𝐞; they seem to be teaching a tutelage that is in a form of self-improvement lessons, using the words in the Bible to tell you what you want to hear, to make you feel good, to help you justify evil behaviors that are not understood in their entirety.

 

With all of this, we all get lost in the world and some become 𝐚𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐬, some just visit various churches for they don’t see any other alternatives. Some of us do see at least a spiritual side but, it is 𝐭𝐨𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐝𝐬 𝐩𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐬𝐦 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐫𝐞𝐥𝐢𝐠𝐢𝐨𝐮𝐬 𝐚𝐫𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐯𝐢𝐥 𝐧𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞. After all this, the answer to all of our questions is 𝐑𝐈𝐆𝐇𝐓 𝐈𝐍𝐒𝐈𝐃𝐄 𝐔𝐒.

 

We do not have to just look towards the outside environment for the answers; 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐚𝐥𝐥 𝐛𝐞𝐚𝐫 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐧𝐞𝐬𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐝 𝐜𝐫𝐮𝐞𝐥 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐠𝐚𝐯𝐞 𝐭𝐨 𝐲𝐨𝐮; that false egotistical self that has no real solid proof of not only of the Creator’s existence but, even of your own selves.

 

𝐈𝐟 𝐚 𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐢𝐥𝐥 𝐣𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐚 𝐠𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐚𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐬𝐞𝐥𝐯𝐞𝐬, they will see that they are more than just a biological organism created with thoughts, emotions and a body to act out these thoughts and emotions; then die without a trace of remembrance, die without the fact or proof that they were even born, and all of their deeds rather good or evil, (𝒘𝒉𝒊𝒄𝒉 𝒂𝒓𝒆 𝒕𝒉𝒆 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒕𝒘𝒐 𝒕𝒉𝒊𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒘𝒆 𝒌𝒏𝒐𝒘) would forever be lost in the abyss without recognition.

 

 If one probe deep enough into the inner chambers of SELF, one will find that they have a thinking center, an emotional center, and a moving center which is the physical body. 𝐃𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐝𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧, one would also come to the realization that someone or at least something, had to create these letters that form into words, that form into sentences creating paragraphs that eventually form thoughts; those invisible thoughts that seem to come out of nowhere into your human brain without your control.

 

Most of us 𝐀𝐑𝐄 𝐍𝐎𝐓 𝐁𝐑𝐀𝐕𝐄 𝐄𝐍𝐎𝐔𝐆𝐇 to venture into this inner-world; we are afraid of what we would find, afraid of what we have become. Are you brave enough??? Would you be the one who penetrates through the mundane consciousness???
