      Spirituality

      As noted at the outset, many people consider the Bible to be a sacred book. They find that when they read it and apply its guidance, they feel uplifted spiritually and come to understand their purpose in life.

      The Bible uses the word “spirituality” to refer to an attitude or an approach to life. (Jude 18, 19) Unlike a fleshly-minded person, who focuses more on self, those with a spiritual outlook value God’s standards.​—Ephesians 5:1.
