Why Faith must unite with clear Spiritual Knowledge
It's good to Depart completely from any dead or blind forms of Faith
The reason why Religion without Logic and Life can only be harmfulWhen it comes to the fundamental questions of our existence, most of us are characterised by a difficult-to-explain indifference or false enthusiasm, albeit in different forms in different countries of the world. Whether in the Northern States, where faith and trust in God are increasingly disappearing and greed is taking their place, or in the Southern Countries, where trusting belief in God and incorrect belief in the teachings of the churches are simply mixed up: hardly anyone seriously wants to know that true faith mustn't just be a good feeling, but that we have to learn, that the loving Will of God has also to be consistent, logical, strict and just and therefore does not agree with most of the teachings of the churches! Or they don't want to know why they are living on Earth, where they were before they were born, where they are going and whether their life has meaning or not. Why is that?The word ‘Faith’, as it is used today, accounts for a large part of the general frustration and the lack of knowledge regarding spiritual questions. Religious communities have taken over the monopoly on the term and demand that their followers have firm faith in their teachings and condemn any reasonable doubt – despite the fact that, in a grotesque way, they cannot conclusively answer the fundamental questions of our existence. Instead they advocate teachings that, on closer inspection, contain many contradictions that question the perfection of God.It may sound harsh, but if we believe and trust these teachings just like that, we also believe that God would act arbitrarily! What's more, we see this arbitrariness as great and almighty, get excited about it, and don't see how much we are belittling God in our imagination and making him imperfect.That is why there are several articles on this website about the life of the Son of God, Jesus of Nazareth, which show that much of what is said about him is not true! The truth can be found in the Laws of Creation in every second of our lives, and these are always reliable and never make an exception, even when Jesus, as the Son of God, is involved! A proof of the perfection of God's will!One example: the Law of Reciprocal Action is always, without exception, connected to the person who caused it. If he sins, he alone must compensate for this sin; no one else can do it for him. And since there is no exception, Jesus, as a totally Innocent, cannot take on other people's sins and atone for them by dying. In so doing, God would be overriding His own Law, which is an impossibility, in view of His perfection. So Jesus as the Redeemer did not come to die for us on the cross, but to show us the way to escape from our wrong actions, from our sins, and to take a path that is right and pleasing to God!This refutes the teachings of many churches that claim the opposite. But if you accept them anyway, your spiritual connection is mainly with your church, not with God. And so there is a lot that absolutely must be set right! -But let's return to some fundamental considerations:As I said before, most religious institutions actually expect us to believe without question, therefore blindly, their teachings. But, on closer inspection, these teachings contradict the clear statements of Jesus of Nazareth whom they claim to belong to. Should we accept doctrines that cannot explain our origin, our path, the structure and Laws of Creation? At the same time, however, these communities do much to make their believers dependent on them, often not shying away from the presumption of claiming to be the direct representative of God and the inalienable representor on earth. For example, they claim this right on the basis of questionable interpretations of the Bible and thoughtlessly write it down for millennia, as a sort of legacy. Just like that, without any plausible rationale! We should not come up with the idea of being able to find the way to the Creator ourselves – independently of the churches, sects and religions!And since this often tormenting dependency, which extended over the past centuries, is the opposite of freedom, many people today would prefer not to deal with the most important questions of our existence and with God at all. Partly out of fear of falling back into this dependency, but partly also out of actual disinterest, caused by decades of indifference. Here the meaning of what is spiritual is already dangerously stunted by non-activity. And the bad impression of "Religion" is in many cases confirmed by fellow human beings who have already been harmed - who, in false faith, became anxious and unfree, mentally atrophied or fanatical.
Millennia-old fake news:
The faith in a human redemption through the crucifixion death of the totally innocent Jesus of Nazareth.
So it is, that most people no longer want to hear about higher connections, and this makes the danger of total spiritual indifference and the doom-laden severance of the development of the soul and spiritual excessively significant!But that's how we proverbially jump from the frying pan into the fire. For if we reject everything spiritual and rely only on the material, we are given sole sovereignty to the intellect. To this intellect, which devises fantastic gadgets, but by its intrinsic nature is incapable of doing the most important thing: to feel the indispensable ethical values of being human and to understand things that are beyond the earthly. Therefore, a materialist with an intellect-oriented mind will never be able to recognize something higher, let alone God.And so, in long periods of time, we have become humans of this odd species now by the majority: on the one hand, we are truly accomplishing admirable achievements and rapid technological advances, but on the other, we are primarily using our achievements to get power, money and convenience and thereby inevitably spreading suffering and destroying our livelihoods with greed! Even the rejection from large parts of society of the hitherto moral values is becoming more conspicuous from day to day! But without values, a person has departed from humanity and dignity!Don’t events on a large and small scale show us undeniably that our chosen paths do not lead to happiness, health and well-being? The opposite is however the case: the self-inflicted problems and constraints grow from day to day, without the least possible solution in sight.On the other hand, beyond a speculative, blind faith, is there any higher, clearer and more comprehensible knowledge of the connections in creation? Would this knowledge help us show ways out of the growing chaos that surrounds us? The answer to both questions is a clear yes!But how can we know what is right or wrong, what is true or false teaching? The only way is to examine and inwardly feel through, whether what we absorb as knowledge in us, is really logical in all directions and corresponds to our sense of justice. This path requires efforts, but there is definitely no other way.It also means that we are forced to relentlessly reexamine our previous concepts, our previously acquired knowledge! In the process we will find that even widespread ideological doctrines, which billions of people profess as "their faith", are therefore by no means consistent and true! Was it to be different, we would have peace and well-being all over the whole world!This website is therefore aimed at people who deep within, still have the conviction, or at least the idea that "each man forges his own destiny" and that we have it in our own hands, to attract pleasing or problematic consequences, depending on the nature of our actions. Our actions also include our words, even our thoughts and our inner dispositions, of which the later are the driving forces behind the actions! And it is aimed at people who are struggling with the previous doctrine of belief in God, and beyond the widespread denominations, is therefore building this faith upon a new foundation.I would be happy if the essays and lectures contained here are helpful. They were created partly from my editorial work for the journal "Grailworld", which was published till mid-2015, partly as lectures or are re-written for this website. To make understanding easy, they are organized according to topics of existential importance and are based on the all-encompassing knowledge of creation, which are laid down in the "Grail Message - In the Light of Truth".
This website is under construction – but here’s a preview of the topics you’ll find:
Why Faith must unite with clear Spiritual Knowledge - Why true faith is not what is commonly understood by Christians.Jesus of Nazareth - How his clear and pure teachings have been significantly distorted over the past 2,000 years.The Laws of Creation - God's will and the perfect driving forces behind all events.Life after death - What happens next according to Natural Laws, and why viewing death more naturally can be deeply liberating.New: Suicide - Why the desired End of our Existence cannot happen according to Natural Laws.Enigma Coronavirus - Is the coronavirus a random mutation, a "punishment from God," or something entirely different?Translated from the original German site 'spirituelle-werte.de', partly with the help of AI. For all inaccuracies and stylistic weaknesses I ask for your sympathy.
