Some things lost impetus in me. Certain allegations were empty before giunghino to my heart. Certain statements do not make more sense when I organize my day.
My faith has ceased to be a force to God that compel him to act. Conceive of faith as the courage to face life with the values \u200b\u200bof the Gospel. Faith signica a bet, and lived the truth revealed by Jesus of Nazareth has become sufficient for me to deal with the contingencies of the world without disumanizarmi. Faith does not conduct the Divine, but serves as a stepping stone which impels me to the exciting (and dangerous) adventure of life. Already
not hope that a relationship with God is my screens accidents. I do not believe, nor do I want and that God cover me with an impenetrable casing. I find it an absurd promise, in the midst of suffering, which generates a life of obedience and pure security against illness, accidents and violence.
I consider frivolous to say that when women pray, God save their children if they are involved with drugs, promiscuity and other ills. Why would God's hands are tied because of the choices or indifferent, often awkward, boys and girls? This means that if parents do not watch, God allows their children to be lost? As God incites someone to repent, Drag force in response to the request of the parents? I wonder if the "salvation" of children does not depend so much of divine intervention, but of parents?
Both in the Old Testament as in the earthly ministry of Jesus, there are reports in which God refuses to manipulate or coerce any person not to bring him. God is love and who loves is vulnerable to abandonment. A classic example comes from the prophet Hosea who embodied a rejection similar to that of God
When Israel was a child, I loved him, and called my son out of Egypt. (11.1).
In Luke, Jesus complained about the city of Jerusalem, in addition to repeat the pattern to take the prophets, rejected it:
Jerusalem, Jerusalem, you who kill the prophets and stones those who are sent to you! how often would I have gathered thy children together, as a hen gathers her chicks under her wings, and ye would not! (13:34).
I do not think, for those who perform religious rites, there becomes a sea of \u200b\u200bpeace. I do not imagine that, when properly observing the commandments, the sea of \u200b\u200blife ceases to be risky.
eyes closed to pray, to pray fervently terzo, pregare inginocchiato, fare campagne per intercedere ferocemente nelle vigilie, pregare urlando, nessuna di queste espressioni religiose intende la devozione, ma si bada ai vantaggi che le altre creature umane, che non le fanno altretanto, loro non gradiranno. Io le considero clientelismo puro, ripetizioni vane, pugno su punta di coltello, mescola d’illusione con speranza.
Si assomigliano allo sforzo delle tartarughe che sognano le altitudini, ma si sentono costrette a respirare del polvere della strada.
Io trovo indegno un Cristiano chiedere che Dio lo aiuti ad essere promosso al concorso pubblico. Infatti, io considero un orrore etico. Nello stesso modo, in economie che producono esclusi non รจ legale chiedere that the Lord opens a door to work. " It makes no sense to imagine that the Almighty will be able to put more people in emerging countries that are working in poorer areas of the world, where billions survive on less than $ 1 per day.
I already ailing with large segments of the evangelical world, but I can not remain silent. Everywhere I hear the cliches as if they were merciful assertions of faith. Unfortunately, these jargons make the ideological role to bring people away from reality, pushing the religious delirium. Religion in this case is just opium.
Soli Deo Gloria.
