On serving two masters at the same time, in a life between two worlds An examination of the connections between the Sermon on the Mount (Matthew 6:24) and the promise of the Spirit of Truth or Holy Spirit in John 14:15-27 as guidance for our obedience and love. Introduction . 01. Dear reader, if you have landed on this page, perhaps a higher power that loves you very much has led you here. In fact, that same power has led me to write what you are about to read, as far as you are willing to read.

If this question seems exaggerated to us, let us briefly consider a few statistics from the EU: Overall, as an average of all studies in 2024/2025, about 50-60% of the EU population lives with noticeable fears of disasters and health risks. Around 84 million people in the EU suffer from mental health problems, often exacerbated by fears of crises. This leads us to the second important question for our consideration: Is everything that means chaos and destruction a fundamental part of our being/life? Could it be different, if not the cir...
