"Guide me in your truth and teach me, for your are God my Savior, and my hope is in you all day long." - Psalm 25:5 #psalm #wordwednesday #verseoftheweek #scripture #bibleverse #bible #goliveserve

In book 1 of Cicero's On The Nature of the Gods, the Epicurean Velleius makes a number of criticisms of other philosophers' views on the gods. Here's a core concept video discussing those https://lnkd.in/eqKsZ7Mp #Video #Philosophy #God #Divinity #Criticism #Plato #Epicureanism

So how do you get from where you are to where you want to be? (Well first you have to realize that you are always right where you want to be, but that's a matter of many different spiritual and philosophical disciplines.) In practical terms it comes down to choosing and it comes down to fear. Or as Steinbeck put it in East of Eden... Timshel - thou mayest. More on this here: https://lnkd.in/e8RQ9Dz3

For ages mankind has debated the meaning of life. In terms of the world, countless philosophers and philosophies have arisen over the centuries, each with their reasoning and compelling points. But what does the source of all wisdom, the word of God, have to say about the meaning of life? In this article I share with you what the biblical approach is to this fundamental question, and why it is the bible that is the only one that gets it right. https://lnkd.in/gRpUzwut #jesus #faith #bible #christian #christianity #god #theology #endtimes #truth #biblestudy #grace #gospel #thegospel #thebible #saved #scripture

"Watch your life and doctrine closely. Persevere in them, because if you do, you will save both yourself and your hearers." - 1 Timothy 4:16 #1Timothy #wordwednesday #verseoftheweek #scripture #bibleverse #bible #goliveserve

Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? 1 Corinthians 1:20 From the ancient world to the present day, how many philosophers have come and gone? How many ideas became little more than passing trends or failed experiments? Only the wisdom that comes from God is durable and eternal. And His wisdom always proves itself superior to even the best human thinking. Lord, as I take in the voices and ideas around me, I am swept up in a whirlwind of information. Help me to hear Your voice over the clamor. Give me the wisdom to recognize hollow and vain philosophies that are not of You. Instead, teach me to rely on Your truth, even if the world around me sways in another direction. In Jesus’ name, amen. #spiritualityandspiritualsouls #brainexpansiongroup

The God-in-you is always within you. The God-in-you is divine and constant. The divinity of the human being was fundamental to my father's philosophy. Read more in the autobiography I wrote about his extraordinary life. Link in comments. #humanity #kindness #inspiration #publishing

According to Martin Seligman, citing a study which had examined 3,000 years and over 200 volumes of philosophical, cultural and religious materials, there are six virtues : - Wisdom and Knowledge - Courage - Love and Humanity - Justice - Temperance - Spirituality and Transcendence and although the specific details of each may vary across those materials and cultures, the virtues themselves are quite common. Which, for me personally, gives rise to the question, “okay, so how am I measuring up…?” . . (p.s.
