Things You Should Know About Reading Books
         "You should become educated because the world you are going to meet is learned," says the Lord. Therefore, note the following very important points and abide by them:
  1. One, reading in life is both necessary and compulsory. The world is God’s own school. Humanity are here on earth to gain knowledge and experience.

  2. Two, you do not stop going to market simply because there are fake products in the markets. The only thing you should do is to be very careful. Yes, be open-minded, and yet, very careful.

  3. Three, do not engage yourself to read everything you see. Select those books that can help you grow in spirit.

  4. Four, do not believe the advice of religious leaders, who tell you not to read books. You are here to learn. And if you end up gaining all the treasures of the world, without learning as expected of you, you are the worst loser.

  5. Five, reverend ministers of God delay your spiritual progress by telling you not to read books written by members of other churches. No church can claim to know everything about God. Besides, people do not and cannot dictate for the heavens. It is the duty of man to search out books writhen by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and read such books.

  6. Six, at times people say that those who read spiritual books will become mad. Let the world show an example, only one example of somebody, since the time of creation of the world, who became mad simply because he read a spiritual book from God.

  7. Seven, books are meant to teach and guide, to inform and educate you. It should not take away your power of independent thinking. You have free will, free choice and individual responsibility as ordained by God. And I ask, what do religious leaders gain by keeping people ignorant? Or, what do they gain by leading ignorant multitudes?

  8. Eight, people always give uncountable reason why they should not read spiritual books. That is not good, and it is the Devil’s way of keeping people in bondage and captivity. The only power Satan has over you is your own ignorance. He knows that the moment you know what you are, the moment you know your spiritual rights and privileges, he can no longer defeat or affect you.

  9. Nine, when you read, concentrate on one author and one subject at a time. Do not rush to read everything over night. If you do so, you harm yourself and also delay your spiritual progress. Always adopt a slow and steady pace in things of the spirit. As if nothing is happening, yet much is being achieved.

  10. Ten, pray and desire seriously to grow in spirit. Otherwise, you end up like others who are always claiming that their church is the best, without knowing that they are spiritual dwarfs, who have not even started the journey back to God.
