Can you honestly say you have read the texts in the Bible to the best of your understanding to decode what exactly is being said or are you going to church waiting for the pastor to give you a scripture to reflect on that Sunday? In order to explore your spirituality, you must research and read information on your own. You cannot take someone else’s interpretations as facts when it comes to protecting your soul. You must take the initiative to do the research for yourself and see what truth truly lies within that knowledge.
The Bible is just the beginning of your spiritual journey like going to Kindergarten. In this class, you will learn the fundamentals and gradually you will work yourself up to a higher level. If you can’t decode the Bible and understand what this book was truly made for, you will always be stuck at the same level of your faith. The Bible is a guide for your spirit so that your soul is protected in the afterlife. The principles and morals it holds is to help guide you in this life while protecting and feeding your spirit.
If you have been going to church for years, you should know everything you need to know regarding the Bible. It makes no sense for you to continue to study the same thing over and over again because it’s all repetitive. Preachers shouldn’t be looking at the same faces year after year because that means the message is not getting through. We should be moving towards the next level. Your pastor is only your teacher for this part of your spiritual journey, however once this knowledge has been learned, it is time to move forward.
You will always be a student in spirituality but recognize your teachers as well. When you’re in school you go from grade to grade and you experience different teachers who specialize in different topics. Your pastor may not be the best teacher to inform you of your spiritual roots and ancient spiritual practices because their expertise is in Bible studies. Seek knowledge from those who practice what it is you need to know.
Anyone who stops your learning process is looking out for themselves and not your well-being. Spirituality is your personal connection and relationship with the Divine Ones and no one can tell you how to do that. There is not anything wrong with communicating with your spirit guides (angels, ancestors, or other deities). There is no right and wrong, only intentions. They are here to guide you and help you navigate this life on this Earth.
Listen to them and allow their wisdom to guide you.
