Religion comes from Religio [Latin term] meaning 'Back to Bondage'. Religion is Extremely Self Serving. Religion has no thirst for truth. Religion can't deliver Anyone. Religion can't clean up Anyone. Religious folks are the same like last year, there is no growth or improvement in them. Religion has no Life. Its all for Self Satisfaction. Religion calls us slaves but LORD JESUS calls us Son and Daughter of GOD [John 20.17], and Heirs with HIM [Romans 8.17]. Christianity is LOVE and RESPECT for ALL. GOD/BIBLE Never even suggests to: 1. Hate Anyone but rather commands us to LOVE; not only our: family, friends, neighbors but also our Enemies! 2. Not to Curse others but commands us to BLESS even them that curse us. 3. Not to Do evil to our Haters but commands us to DO GOOD 4. And to PRAY for those who USE us selfishly and PERSECUTE us [Matthew 5.44]. These are few of numerous GOD's Kingdom Principles for great untold Eternal Rewards which will show up once we are DEAD and gone. So never break them. GOD is GOOD, GOD is LOVE whereas Devil is EVIL. It is Devil who: deceives, lies, steals, kills and destroys but not GOD. [1 John 4.8], [John 8.44], [John 10.10], [Revelation 12.9]. My friend Know JESUS personally as your Savior in order to know Real Love, Joy, Peace and Hope! Beloved know this it is JESUS who SAVES us but Not Religion ... JESUS DIED for our SINS, Forgave us and Loves us and Commands us to copy HIM to LOVE, RESPECT, FORGIVE others and Heal our world... Christianity is not a religion my friend as Misunderstood by Billions but a Relationship with GOD our Heavenly FATHER [John 1.12-13] walking in the HOLY SPIRIT of GOD [Romans 12.2]... By being Dead to our old dark self and quickened to CHRIST in our spirit [2 Corinthians 5.17] ...loving, forgiving, respecting and accepting everyone [Matthew 19.19]... Winning them [Matthew 28.19-20] for CHRIST, saving souls [Proverbs 11.30]... Go for it, become and be a CHRISTIAN, be BLESSED and be a BLESSING to others as well...
