SELF DETERMINATION THEORY – SPIRITUAL
1. Amotivation
Most people have no spiritual motivation, path of least resistance.
2. Extrinsic Motivation
How many become Christians, rewards and consequences. Rewards – hearing about eternal life, relief from shame and guilt. Oughtness – suffering from sin, one desires a better life, freedom from addictions. Want to be – coming in contact with Christian life style influences one to chose. I am – many believe they already are Christian, need to be challenged to prove it. From extrinsic motivations people decide to become a Christian but will not last as a Christian if external motivation is where they remain, tiring waiting for eternal life.
​
3. Intrinsic Motivation
Blessed – happiness from within, mental ascension.
Emotional – knowing one has eternal life now, 1 John 5:13; Acts 16:23-25
Social – knowing one is a child of God, citizen of the kingdom, Philippians 3:20; 1 John 3:1-3
Physical – knowing we can be one with God, 1 Corinthians 2:16
Self Regulation – Now that we are Christian, with eternal life, a child of God, learning to develop the mind of Christ, we focus on self improvement by learning to develop the fruit of the Holy Spirit in our everyday walk with Christ – Galatians 5:22-23
