Every individual has a role to fulfill

by Luiz de Mattos

The aim of Christian Rationalism is to awaken individuals to spirituality and, in this way, to free them from the thought of malice, which induces psychic and physical disorders. Our philosophy recommends that everyone reason about their actions and observe their surroundings in such a way that they can justifiably progress.

In life’s daily battles, every individual has a role to fulfill. It’s a shame, though, that not everyone knows how play his or her part. Having love for one’s work is a spiritual duty, but there are many individuals who work as a matter of necessity and not for the duty of being productive or doing something useful in this world.

For too many people, work is merely a mandatory task required to pay their bills and to accomplish their own needs only. Once they have their very basic essentials satisfied, they do nothing. One of the evils of humanity is work disaffection and the dreadful fear of assuming responsibilities.

There are many individuals who do not want to make a sacrifice: they are indolent; they look for the easiest part of the work in the hope of not overworking their bodies. But they are misled. Acting this way, they are deceiving their spirits and delaying their spiritual evolution. Sometimes, it is necessary to speak this truth a little harshly so that these inattentive individuals can awaken. Too much courtesy will not allow them to grasp this life’s reality.

Everyone can find, within Christian Rationalist philosophy, the necessary enlightenment one needs to conquer their spiritual evolution and their material progress. In spiritual awakening, one will notice their mistakes and will head towards a new path. Those who study Christian Rationalism will find within our principles something new that serves them as guidance in life.

Nothing in this world is easy: there is a great deal of bitterness and suffering. However, men and women have the duty to endure and to surpass setbacks with dignity and integrity and without fearing anything. A good fighter has no fears, faces life with strength and determination, ending up victorious.

When the time comes for humanity to become spiritually enlightened, when human beings learn to value their own individual personalities, they will discover intimately their superior traits and begin to live with tranquility. One’s ideal is conquered with valor and courage, but cowardliness is natural for those who do not have an ideal in life. Hence, genuine Christian Rationalists are courageous spiritualists.
