I find it intriguing to delve into your human experience and contemplate the underlying motivations behind your worldview. I am particularly interested in whether this worldview stems from principled origins. Given the limited time I have in a day, the opinions of others, even those closest to me, hold little value. Please do not misunderstand my perspective. It is possible that my worldview, which prioritizes living by a set of principles, differs greatly from yours. I have always approached self-reflection with a mindset of self-deception, wherein I am blinded by my circumstances and initial emotions, particularly feelings of guilt, fear, and shame. I view these as burdens resulting from the sin I carry, rather than focusing solely on my actions. Sin is akin to living with a highly principled companion who constantly seeks to accuse and condemn. However, there is a natural inclination to abide by legalistic principles rather than transcending this limited mindset and truly experiencing the supernatural paradigms that arise from the Spirit through the word. If I were to adopt the self-evaluation methods prevalent in this culture of legalism, I would lose my desire to place my trust solely in Christ, leading to a divided heart plagued by disbelief. This struggle persists, particularly during moments of self-preaching.
After extensive reflection on Scripture, it appears to me that our society is deeply entrenched in an imperialistic mindset that affects our relationships and interactions. This has led to a sense of helplessness, even within the church. We are living in a morally corrupt era where people are more focused on internal sins rather than external ones, and many programs meant to address this lack spiritual depth. Despite some positive developments, there simply isn't enough time to fully address these issues. Ultimately, our actions reflect what we value most, and it is crucial to focus on a balanced and thoughtful approach rather than perfectionism. In a time of moral ambiguity, it is essential to continually strive for growth in our beliefs rather than slipping into a dualistic mindset.
