Modern Christian culture has many elements which are admirable, and many failings which are abominable ... spiritual prejudice and looking for Satan and finding fault and evil is a poor way to spend your life. Instead, follow what Jesus taught and find the Kingdom of Heaven within yourself. "The Kingdom of Heaven is at Hand" is the Truth that Jesus spoke over and over again ... and it is true. Jesus is alive today in the true disciples, the Holy Spirit of God is real.
I have found the commentary by Paramahansa Yogananda to be very full of wisdom. He is the person who brought Yoga to the American West. Yoga is NOT a religion, but a way of life. People who seek to advance in knowledge of Jesus and who wish to experience Life in Christ should live simply, not crave after positions of power and glory and do little works of kindness every day of their lives and not glory in how the world sees them. Doing what you need to do every day is a challenge enough.
Find Christ withing yourself, and see it in others. It's that simple. And when you are ready to leave this world may you see Him (Jesus) and be 'Raptured' into His Love. That will happen when you are prepared to leave one body and go to the Heavenly world. Don't ask for this 'Rapture' too soon and be surprised you no longer are on Earth!
Be present in your daily life, not crazy and ego-centered and loving the sound of your own voice like so many so called preachers and wolves in sheep's clothing. There are true teachers out there ... it is not vain to look for one, and you have the right not to accept everything they say. Test teachings according to the Word of God who is YHWH.
Don't be crazy and think you will find Jesus off in a faraway location ... He is right here in your heart of hearts. You find Him when you are awake and Alive in Christ. Anything less is not Realization and Truth and Reality.
Reality is knowledge and direct perception of Heaven within you. Heavenly Kingdoms are within you and within other Human Beings. Perceive this and you will be in line with Christ.
Try to intellectualize Christ, the bible and scripture and you will be MISSING THE POINT! The point is to connect with the Eternal Force which is within you. A child can do it, a baby can do it and a mentally retarded person can do it and every living creature can do it and so what is wrong with the intellectual man? Why does he question? It's so simple. Just Be.
