Six Classes of Food for Spiritual Growth

The book The Six Classes of Food for Your Spiritual Growth is a classic for everyone who desires to grow spiritually. The author, Afolake Olubajo stylishly embellishes the six classes of food the body consumes; carbohydrates, protein, water, vitamins, minerals and fats and oil as appetizers for the spirit man to long for and desperately desire for spiritual growth. The pastoral persuasive language she uses in bringing the natural food to correlate with the 'nutrients' derive in spiritual food is highly commendable. For instance, the word of God is likened to carbohydrates with the energy and strength the word of God releases from studying and meditation which is similar to what you derive from carbohydrates consumption. Proteins are juxtaposed with prayer, the nutrients you need in building up the spirit-man, while in chapter three, water is likened to the Holy Spirit. The cleansing and purification process of water which makes it indispensable is explored by Afolake in a 'must' thirst for the Holy Spirit by any Christian that desires spiritual growth. She aptly describes the Holy Spirit as "Internal" GPRS experts that never get confused nor proffers wrong solution".
