In pursuit of the ideal or ideology? - by Martin Geddes
Watch now (4 min) | Spiritual growth comes from ever closer identification with the whole
https://newsletter.martingeddes.com/p/in-pursuit-of-the-ideal-or-ideology?sd=pfThere is a wholeness and oneness with God that fulfills our soul that is beyond freeing from the imprisonment of wandering and wondering. It’s an absolute assurance of our salvation that brings complete peace to our souls. It is the oneness with God, our Father that quenches our internal distress. The “understanding and knowledge” cannot be explained because it’s not tangible but an unmistakable change inside of us. The external Source, God, brings internal power and peace through our full repentance and faith in Him.

Question: What does it mean when people say, "I'm not religious, but I am spiritual." — Bethany Lutheran
St. Augustine, a famous ancient church father, is quoted as saying: “You made us for yourself, O Lord, and our hearts are restless until they find rest in you.” That’s a rephrasing of Psalm 62:1, “My soul finds rest in God alone; my salvation comes from him.” We’re all “spiritual”. Everybod..
