Understanding how to reduce the complex components of human nature-thought processes, emotions, imagination, will, and physical desires-is not merely wishful thinking. It's not about reasoning or having academic intelligence. True transformation requires a comprehensive reprogramming of life, far beyond partial changes. When what is incorruptible becomes corruptible, readjusting the entire system involves addressing each aspect individually to achieve harmony. A whole person is a spiritually engineered being, functioning like a machine, where every part must be attended to independently to achieve spiritual alignment and physical order.
Purification involves emptying ourselves to make room for the Spirit to take over. Therefore, religious achievements never eliminate the necessity for spiritual sanctification, consecration, and offering ourselves as living sacrifices. We need both life and abilities to fulfill the laws of existence and function. Fasting and prayer are spiritual duties that demonstrate our sincere commitment, surpassing all other expressions of faith. Our sacrifices are secret keys to our success, as they signify our willingness to meet Him at the intersection of our spiritual and physical obligations.
