Spiritual and intellectual pursuits are one and the same. Great love is born of great knowledge.
Knowledge does not automatically translate into worship. But the more you know about God, the more you have to worship God.
I’m not advocating an intellectual feeding frenzy. After all, we already suffer from information overload. I’m not convinced we need to know more, as much as we need to do more with what we know. That said, keep learning!
“Live as if you’ll die tomorrow,” said Mahatma Gandhi. “Learn as if you’ll live forever.” That’s a good rule of thumb.
The word disciple comes from the Greek word mathétés. The root word means “the mental effort needed to think something through.” So by definition, a disciple is someone who never stops learning.
Faith is not mindless.
Faith is mindful.
“God is Spirit, and those who worship Him must worship in spirit and truth.”” John 4:24
