spirit [Theme]



You need to accustom yourself to prayer when everything is good, so that this skill will work when things are bad. Because at the moment of testing, each of us experiences carnal weakness - panic, fear, confusion, loss of strength; and if the spirit, strengthened by prayer, is vigorous, then it subdues the weakened flesh, guides it, and gives courage to accomplish feats.

Natural law, as a necessary form of spiritual existence, is the most precious asset of man. Outside of this form there is no path to wisdom, virtue, Divinity, or the final and highest satisfactions of the spirit. The derogation of natural law degrades human dignity; every violation of it is spiritually unnatural.
Quote Explanation: About why natural law is better than positivism.

Philister (Philister from German - “Philistine”) is a contemptuous name for a person with narrow views, devoted to routine; a smug philistine, an ignorant layman, distinguished by hypocritical, sanctimonious behavior. Schopenhauer defined a philistine as a person without spiritual, that is, intellectual needs, as one who has no aspirations for knowledge and understanding, who does not receive aesthetic pleasure from art, and has only physical needs.
Quote Explanation: The word “philistine” in its positive meaning was included in Pushkin’s active vocabulary. In the novel “Eugene Onegin,” the poet Lensky is characterized by the line: “At heart a Göttingen philistine.” It is this version that appears in the first edition of the chapter on October 20, 1826, and in the reprint of 1830.

Where our attention is, there is our strength and there is our spirit. What we emit is what we receive. A person's most powerful resource is his attention. His condition depends on this. Which ultimately affects everything else. The truth is always somewhere in the middle. Trust only your heart.

If an atheist appears in front of you and says that he does not believe in God, you can read him a whole library and prove that God exists, but this will not make him a believer. But if in front of the same atheist you give evidence of an authentic Christian life, something will begin to work in his heart. It is your testimony that will bring him that special concern that the Holy Spirit is working on.
