Spiritual Life

Solid basis for one’s spiritual life.

Spiritual life must be built on deep faith—symbolized by the image of the rock. In fact, Jesus says that the manner in which we build will determine if we are foolish or wise (Mt 7: 27). Isaiah, too explicitly proclaims that “the Lord is the eternal rock.” [Is 26:1-6]. All must be based on this eternal rock. Even the lofty city will fall if it becomes too far removed from its foundation. The Tower of Babel owed its origin to the population of the city where the people plotted with each other to rival God. The tower was a work of extreme pride. If we stay humble and close to the ground, then we won’t fall. No structure is any stronger than its foundation. “Eternal rock theology” assures us that our structure of faith may be shaken but will not collapse and fall if built on the life and teachings of Jesus.
