RELIGION VS SPIRITUALITY

WHAT'S THE DIFFERENT

It has become quite popular in recent years to distinguish between spirituality and religion.

 

It’s true that there are valid distinctions between the two, but there are also a number of problematic distinctions which often and unnecessarily divide the two fields of thought. 

One principal problem with attempts to separate religion from spirituality is that the former is saddled with everything negative while the latter is exalted with everything positive.

It is important to note the fact that many of the negative things which people attribute to religions are features of some forms of some religions (usually Judaism, Christianity, and Islam), but not of other religions (like Taoism or Buddhism).

Religion is spiritual and spirituality can also be considered religious. One tends to be more personal and private while the other tends to incorporate public rituals and organized doctrines.

 

The lines between one and the other may often not be clear or distinct depending on the interpretation.

Consider these definitions:

Religion is an institution established by man for various reasons. Exert control, instill morality, stroke egos, or whatever it does. Organized, structured religions all but remove god from the equation. You confess your sins to a clergy member, go to elaborate churches to worship, told what to pray and when to pray it. All those factors remove you from god.

 

Spirituality is born in a person and develops in the person. It may be kick started by a religion, or it may be kick started by a revelation. Spirituality extends to all facets of a person’s life. Spirituality is chosen while religion is often times forced. Being spiritual to me is more important and better than being religious.
 

True spirituality is something that is found deepwithin oneself. It is your way of loving, accepting and relating to the world and people around you. It cannot be found in a church or by believing in a certain way.

Consider the following in favor of the spiritual path:

• There is not one religion, but hundreds

There is only one type of spirituality

 

• Religion is for those who want to continue rituals and the formality

Spirituality is for those who want to reach the Spiritual Ascent without dogmas
 

• Religion is for those who are asleep

Spirituality is for those who are awake

 

• Religion is for those that require guidance from others

Spirituality is for those that lend ears to their inner voice

 

• Religion has a dogmatic and unquestionable assembly of rules that need to be followed without question

Spirituality invites you to reason it all, to question it all and to decide your actions and assume the consequences

 

• Religion threatens and terrifies

Spirituality gives you inner peace

 

• Religion speaks of sin and of fault

Spirituality encourages "living in the present" and not to feel remorse for which has already passed - Lift your spirit and learn from errors

 

• Religion represses humanity, and returns us to a false paradigm

Spirituality transcends it all and makes you true to yourself

 

• Religion is instilled from childhood, like the soup you do not you want to take

Spirituality is the food that you you seek, that satisfies you and is pleasant to the senses

 

• Religion is not God

Spirituality is infinite consciousness and all that is - It is God
 

• Religion invents

Spirituality discovers

 

• Religion does not investigate and does not question

Spirituality questions everything
 

• Religion is based on humanity, an organization with rules

Spirituality is DIVINE, WITHOUT rules
 

• Religion is cause for division

Spirituality is cause for union
 

• Religion seeks you so that you create

Spirituality causes you to seek
 

• Religion continues the teachings of a sacred book

Spirituality seeks the sacredness in all the books
 

• Religion is fed fear

Spirituality is fed confidence
 

• Religion lives you in your thoughts

Spirituality lives in your conscience
 

• Religion is in charge of the "to do"

Spirituality is in charge of the "to BE"

 

• Religion is a dialectic

Spirituality is logic
 

• Religion feeds the ego

Spirituality makes you transcend
 

• Religion makes you renounce yourself to the world

Spirituality makes you live with God, not to renounce him
 

• Religion is adoration

Spirituality is meditation
 

• Religion is to continue adapting to the psychology of a template

Spirituality is individuality. 
 

• Religion dreams of glory and paradise.

Spirituality makes you live it here and now

 

• Religion lives in the past and in the future.

Spirituality lives in the present, in the here and now

 

• Religion lives in the confinement of your memory.

Spirituality is LIBERTY in AWARENESS. 
 

• Religion believes in the eternal life.

Spirituality makes you conscious of all that is
 

• Religion gives you promises for the after-life.

Spirituality gives you the light to find God in your inner self, in this life, in the present, in the here and the now…

May peace, happiness and universal love continue growing in your heart.

 

 

 

 

 

MINISTRY OF HEALING

Our Lord Jesus Christ came to this world as the unwearied servant of man’s necessity. He “took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses,” that He might minister to every need of humanity. Matthew 8:17.

The burden of disease and wretchedness and sin He came to remove. It was His mission to bring to men complete restoration; He came to give them health and peace and perfection of character.
Varied were the circumstances and needs of those who besought His aid, and none who came to Him went away unhelped. From Him flowed a stream of healing power, and in body and mind and soul men were made whole.

The Saviour’s work was not restricted to any time or place. His compassion knew no limit. On so large a scale did He conduct His work of healing and teaching that there was no building in Palestine large enough to receive the multitudes that thronged to Him. On the green hill slopes of Galilee, in the thoroughfares of travel, by the seashore, in the synagogues, and in every other place where the sick could be brought to Him, was to be found His hospital. In every city, every town, every village, through which He passed, He laid His hands upon the afflicted ones and healed them. Wherever there were hearts ready to receive His message, He comforted them with the assurance of their heavenly Father’s love. All day He ministered to those who came to Him; in the evening He gave attention to such as through the day must toil to earn a pittance for the support of their families.

My Name is Wiza Ngwira. I  am  a  Malawian  who  trained   as  a  Naturopaphic Doctor in  South  Africa.  My  intention  is  to  practice  medicine  for  the  glory  of  God  and  my  passion  is  to  see His  people  set  free  and  healed  of  all  their  diseases.  The  purpose  of  this, is  to  take  the  mystery  out  of disease.  I’m  going  to  explain  in  simple  language  why  you  have  a  disease,  how  it  developed  and  what  it  is going  to  take  to  get  well. As  you will go through  following  you  will  experience  a  new  frontier  in medicine  as  I  take  you  on  a  journey  into  science,  into  the  anatomy  and  physiology of  your  body  and  also  into  the  Bible.  Why  the  Bible?  The  latest  cutting  edge  medical  research  is  proving  what  the  Bible  said  about  health  and  disease  thousands  of years  ago.  In  fact  the  Bible  has  been  proven  to  be  more  scientifically  accurate  in the  area  of  disease  than  medicine  has  been  in  the  past  60  years.  During  the  course of this teaching you are going to see why. If you want to  defeat incurable  disease – this would be a good time  to pay attention. If  you  want  to  defeat  incurable  disease  –  this  would  be  a  good  time  to  pay  attention.  I’m  going  to  show you  disease  in  science  and  the  Bible  in  a  way  you  have  never  heard  it  taught  before.  I  believe  that  this knowledge  will  help  set  you  free  from  disease  and  enable  you  to  take  your  life  back.  I’m  going  to  share with  you  the  practical  application  of  the  Word  of  God  and  medical  science  so  that  you  may  be  healed  and stay  healed,  and  so  that  you  can  help  others  understand  the  gospel.  That  brings  realistic  fruit  to  your  life which is more than just spiritual theories. I’m  going  to  take  you  into  the  foundation  of  all  diseases  as  I  give  you  insight  into  the  spiritual,  psychological  and  physical  mechanisms  that  produce  disease.  I  am  going  to  show  you  how  your  thoughts  and the  things  that  you  meditate  on  long  term  cause  biological  manifestation  in  the  form  of  disease  in  your body. You will  also  benefit  those  who  do  not  have  a  disease  or  illness  at  the  moment. God’s  perfect  will  is  actually  not  healing,  His  perfect  will  is  that  you  don’t  get  sick.  Even  if  you  don’t  have a  disease  today,  it  is  still  important  for  you  to  learn  God’s  principles  concerning  health  –  because  the  principles  you  apply  in  your  life  that  bring  healing,  are  the  same  principles  that  will  prevent  disease.
