Spirituality Exemplified in Christian Life “you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 2:5

What is Spirituality? Defined: –“sensitivity or commitment to religious values and sacred matters” (Nelson’s Bible Dictionary) –“the state of a soul vitalized by the Divine Spirit and made alive unto God. It covers the entire range of man’s faculties: intellect, feeling, will – all the attributes of personality” (International Standard Bible Encyclopedia)

What is Spirituality? A person that is marked by stability and maturity in living by God’s Spirit –Spiritually minded (Galatians 6:1) –Carnal minded (1 Corinthians 3:1-4)

Vines Expository Dictionary of New Testament Words: “The spiritual state is reached by diligence in the Word of God and in prayer; it is maintained by obedience and self-judgment. Such as are led by the Spirit are spiritual, but, of course, spirituality is not a fixed or absolute condition, it admits of growth; indeed growth in ‘the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,’ (2 Peter 3:18), is evidence of true spirituality.”

What is Spirituality? Growing Process –Begins with one’s “new birth” John 3:6; 4:24 Driving Force of Maturing Christians –Romans 8:2-11 –Maturing as a Christian means becoming more spiritual – more directed by God’s Spirit and more focused on the spiritual things of life instead of the physical things.

Ramifications of Spirituality Takes Time to Achieve Must Yield Our Wills to the Holy Spirit –Hebrews 5:12-14 Various Stages of spirituality –We must continue to grow

Characteristics of the Spiritual Man Recognize they’re truly “reborn” –1 Corinthians 2:14-15 Directed by the Spirit of God –Ephesians 5:18

Characteristics of the Spiritual Man Continues to Mature –2 Timothy 2:15 Manifests Christ in their Character –Galatians 5:22-23; 2:20; 1 Peter 2:21 Spirituality reflected in attitude –Ephesians 5:18-21; 1 Corinthians 15:58

Commit to becoming a Spiritual Person! “you also, as living stones, are being built up a spiritual house, a holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices acceptable to God through Jesus Christ.” 1 Peter 2:5
