True spirituality- How we identify?

This Sunday(March 7, 2010) . Pr.Sidney Potter was ministering in the malayalam service. The subject he taken was quite interesting especially these days. How we identify or how we test ourselves whether our spirituality is true or false.
Its very simple. There are four questions each one of us need to answer. And based on the answer we can very clearly distinguish whether our spirituality is true or not.
The questions are formulated based on the most famous sermon in the Bible, Sermon on the mount(Mathew Chapter 5 to 7)

1. How do you want other people to see you?

Is it that others want to see you much better that what you are Or you want to see yourself as exactly as you.

When people see you, if they are able to tell How great a God you believe, then you are on the right side.
Mathew 6:1-4


2. How do you see God?


Is it like you see God as gene who gives whatever you ask or you see God as your heavenly Father?

Mathew 6:9-13. Jesus taught his desciples how to pray. This prayer gives us the template so that we learn how to pray. We cannot command God.
Mathew 6:5-8

3. How do you see other people?
Is it that you see others with a condemning heart or see others with compassion?
If we can see others through God's heart, then we are in the right direction.
Mathew 7:1-5

4.How do you see yourself?
Do you think you are complete in all aspects(finished product) or do you think that you need to grow more?
