    In Spirit And in Truth, a Righteous Way to Live

    About this ebook

    To live a righteous life in the eyes of God requires submission to His will at all times. To worship Him in spirit and in truth, without any doublemindedness.

    No more serving two masters. No more serving other gods.

    Is this possible in this dark world and with our fallen nature? It can be, and the author reflects on a path that can help those willing to achieve this goal.

    It only takes us to turn our whole beings away from the noise of the world and towards the word of God and to live it fully.

    Do we have what it takes to do it? Because in this realm, the veil of the five senses and materialism prevent the majority of humankind from perceiving the Holy Spirit and has disfigured our whole humanity. And since we are hypnotised by the external world…

    Can we take this challenge? To live a righteous life in spirit and in truth? Or, are we ourselves a divided kingdom?

    If we are we will not stand in the hour of the Lord.

      Introduction

      In a conversation about worshipping, Jesus said to the woman of Samaria that came from her town of Sychar to draw water from Jacob’s well: "Woman, believe me, the hour cometh, when ye shall neither in this mountain, nor yet at Jerusalem, worship the Father. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth" (John 4:21,23,24, KJV).

      But as Sam Storms (2022) adequately puts it: "Let us not
