Deeper-Life deals with "MEAT". Once a NewBorn Christian has begun to grow and to develop he needs real Nourishment from God's Living, Written Word-Will, the Bible. Unfortunately, he all-too-soon learns that the Bible is NOT just what people SAY it is. That is, the Babe-in-Christ is usually shocked and hurt by learning that men have a whole variety of very different opinions about just what they THINK God Means by this or that Scripture - and that there is at least as much HATRED as LOVE between such "Brothers" when it comes to any AGREEMENT or CONCORD over the Word!
Such a tug-of-war over 'issues' (howsoever religious they may appear) tends to force the neophyte into one "camp" (these are certainly WAR camps, alright!) or the other. And there is usually no lack of coercion on the part of the different camp's parties as to just how important and vital it is to "stand" with them against the obvious HERESIES of the other side. This is, of course, tragic - even devastating.
At some point a NewCreature-in-Christ must GROW UP and determine that, although other creatures are certainly very important, nevertheless, those creatures neither Died for nor can truly succor or help them with any real Power in any time of need! It was not any man who Saved them, but Jesus Christ - PERSONALLY! And they begin to turn to Him DIRECTLY for help in their time of need!
It is at this point a Christian begins to Learn of God - FROM God Himself. And soon he finds that there is this growing hunger for God's Living Word growing mysteriously where it never was before - inside him. And there also seems a real need to take time OUT of his daily struggle and work-a-day routine and MAKE a place for regular quiet-times WITH-GOD in solemn contemplation. In short, he has decided to GET SERIOUS about his RELATIONSHIP-WITH God!
NOW he has some REAL questions! Not mere impertinences masquerading as serious inquiries. It is very odd how God seems to KNOW when we have learned HOW to ask - that is, in what ATTITUDE or spirit - and when we are only kidding ourselves in a vain attempt to fool God. But there are real needs. Real questions that God Asks us to "Ask, Seek & Knock". If we are to have a REAL Relationship WITH God, and if we are SUPPOSED to Hear Christ (as Jesus Said in Jn 10:27) then we certainly NEED such communication with our Heavenly Father, as He surely will not deny us.
Enter "Deeper-Life"! The 'how-to' of Christianity. ("Now that I AM a Christian, and I am SUPPOSED to be all of these things and be able to DO all of these things, HOW DO I DO IT?") It is to this end these essays and everything else on the Pilgrim's Path is dedicated! God has certainly not HID Himself from man. And, if we are serious and diligent and sincere and in need, will God NOT Hear and ANSWER us?
