Morality is a critically discussed topic that became a matter for incessant dialogue since the beginning of the world, expectedly. The ethical way of schooling helped this broad topic to waft across the territories of the world and the same has been accepted as the promising ideology to push forward human life on this planet.
This has been here since the human race start to discern ‘right and wrong’ right from their hearts. Especially, from the freedom to chose and foster what is right.
Many of the people who have been impressed by the population at their thriving age have had an absolute different opinion about this thought school. The faction who opposed this moral concept might have been the strong advocates of nihilism, I guess. Maybe they believe in optimistic nihilism at least to convince their heart that the life of human beings has some purpose that evolves from the self itself. However, the existential nihilist may not have any hope or scope to find meaning.
Anyhow, morality is a hot subject as its nature exists! It embraces the strings of conscience, cognition, contemplation, and commemoration. Also, it touches the shores of human emotions, ethical vibes, and the emancipation of life.
The argument of morality claims the essentiality of God and his divine interventions over the making of this attribute inside the mind of a human being who can think aright by themselves. Because no other creatures on this earth have the same trait as complex as it is visible in human beings.
So, how would be this excitingly delicate attribute burgeons inside the corridors of human cognition? Is it the magic of evolution or the critical unexplainable natural process of mutation over the passing of Millenniums. Unfortunately, nothing could explain this unresolved wonder ever, except BIBLE.
In the Bible, when God says they he made man in his image, that statement itself holds very answers we seek for centuries.
By telling, God has made man in his image, God means it. God not just made man in his contour but he ” breathed into his nostrils the breath of life- that is his spirit in all aspects. (Genesis 2:7).
In that breath, it carries all the attributes of God intact.
Moreover, that breath embraces the Freedom of free will, Knowledge of God, ethics of morality.
However, in the case of Adam and Eve we can see, though they have the moral conscience inside them and the knowledge of what God has told them to do and not to do, they fell fascinated with the words of satan.
When God told them to avert from the fruit of knowledge, God made them knowledgeable of ‘ What is good in the sight of God and What is bad in the sight of God?’
So, within their innate morality, they can’t overcome the deceiving offers of satan.
In the same context we can see from the chapters of Leviticus and Numbers that people know what is moral but fails to be morale in God.
The complex reason behind this periodic downfall in devotional life walk is the lack of morale in God- which means a lack of spiritual confidence that evolves or comes from the knowledge of God. To gain this we have to know GOD in all his GLORY.
So,
How can we be confident in God in all aspects?
This process involves a sequence of diligent practices.
- When we seek him we will hear him and when we hear him we can know him, when we know him we can understand him, when we understand him, we can love him, when we love him we can sense how much he has been loving and caring us, when we start to experience his love our confidence in him goes high.
- Baptism in the Holy Spirit- to receive the power of God. As our trust in God and his son Jesus Christ and the readiness of our heart to fill in the power of God, we will get baptized the Holy Spirit. John 3:5 ” Truly, truly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and the spirit he cannot enter into the kingdom of heaven. Yeah, to the very ultimate purpose of the Christian life- life with our God Almighty.
- Living/Walking in Holy Spirit- for the desires, doubts, and temptations of this world always try to deceive us, we have to walk in the Holy Spirit. Galatians 5:16–17 But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh sets its desire Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh, for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.
- Reflecting Christ- once we receive the Holy Spirit and start walking with God, we could reflect God in our life intact. Every human who we are meeting, talking, engaging, texting, motivating could see the character of Jesus Christ in us. Romans 8:29 for whom he had foreknew, he also did predesignate to be conformed to the image of his son.
All these sequences of practices would lead a believer to the eternal purpose of his life that is ‘to achieve eternal life with God’. And these stages of life hold a lot of pangs, plights, and persecution also a package of blessings, wonders, happiness, peace, hope, and love. All the latter would surpass the former misfortune in the name of Jesus Christ in fact.
And all it takes is our readiness to know and experience his glory Jesus Christ our God and Lord as he desires to reveal upon us.
As we can Instill his character in our heart we can start seeing things as Gods sees things in and around our life.
Since then we can act and live as if our Jesus Christ has lived in this world. Many of the population may not agree with us, many of them tease and discredit and defame us( as they did to Jesus Christ on that age).
And her in our age it is very clear that God has called to bear witness to our God Jesus Christ as he has does in his Age. For that our conscience is not supposed to be moral as the world sees “What is morality.” But we have to understand God the almighty in all its aspects to be morale in Jesus Christ and his purpose in our life.
Thank you.
