It Is Important to Know How to Overcome the Challenges of Existence

At certain times, people face great difficulties in their lives, as problems arise that they never imagined they would experience. Everyday life is like that, with its days of joy and sadness. The essential thing is that there is spiritual strengthening and enlightenment, allowing the challenges of existence to be overcome and well-being and satisfaction with life to be restored.

Many adversities occur in people’s lives due to a lack of spiritual knowledge. For this reason, attendees who participate in public meetings in Christian Rationalist houses, seeking solutions to their existential problems, are encouraged to study Christian Rationalism reflectively. In this study, they will find in its concepts and principles the spiritual strengthening and enlightenment necessary to face and overcome life’s difficulties through their own efforts.

Many people who regularly attend public meetings regret not having learned about Christian Rationalism before facing the problems that life imposed on them in the past. By putting their teachings into practice in the present, they realize that they could have avoided much suffering, since they would have learned in advance both the Christian Rationalist teachings and the lessons provided by this world of schooling, Earth.

However, living on Earth from the perspective of Christian Rationalism does not mean being free from difficulties. Many people have attended our Houses for years and, even so, continue to face challenges in their lives. In some cases, they are complex existential problems requiring great effort to overcome. However, through the spirituality already achieved by their own merit, they always find ways to overcome these challenges.

Therefore, as mentioned at the beginning of this guidance, study of the spirituality advocated by Christian Rationalism is very important. This knowledge creates real opportunities for people to transform their lives for the better by promoting positive changes in themselves.

People who delve deeper into the study of Christian Rationalist philosophy understand this importance deep down. This is manifested in the elevation of their thoughts, in the development of fraternal feelings, in the practice of good in a disinterested way, and in the confidence in their inner strength to face and resolve life’s challenges satisfactorily.
