RE: The Damage of Religious Lies
Exactly.....I honeslty think a huge issue is the worship of the bible verse the worship of Spirit.....To many sects of christianity have used the bible as a sword to destroy and to divide....I have been awakened over the last year through the Spirit to so much that it had been difficult to deconstruct at times....My evangelical fundemental friends and even family call me a heretic, and decieved and yet I know its God leading me.....Jesus was a voice against religious and political leaders that kept the people from God.....I could go on and on about the OT and so much.....You will see as i begin more in depth writings about my new freedom and love for all.....God is in all and through all and the its just the lies of seperation that keep people from finding there own divinity, Oneness with God.....The lies of the instutional systems created by man for power and control......
Good News Love Wins😇
I like that picture. We have our intuition to know what's right or wrong not someone else's idea of what's right or wrong. It's also about context. Nothing in the world is absolutely good or bad.
Thanks for comment.....I think its how we percieve with our spiritual mind which make it our reality a good or bad experience....When we learn to see everything with a lens of Agape and compassion we begin to see the good in most things even if its a hard lesson.....imo
Following now
Thanks I followed you too.
Yepp. Jesus gave the religious leaders a hard time because they were actually a hinderance to people understanding the truth. When I left the church system people told me I was walking in the wilderness and walking further from God when in fact God was actually bringing me closer to him and his truth.
The irony of this, though, is: if I read my bible correctly... "True Christianity" requires one to be a part of a "church--" which is simply put, a body which organizes "in the name of the Lord" .. I am not a Christian, though I did consider myself one for a period of time. I was actually involved in another "cultish" group; one which was, ostensibly, based on the teachings of something called "Alcoholics Anonymous." Which I left in order to "seek my truth." Whether or not I've found that yet, remains to be seen... The path to "truth" can get quite lonely.
@gjones15 don't let people tell you that a "church" is a building or organization. That is totally false and it is not the biblical definition of church. The greek word for church is Ekklesia which simply means called out ones. All the ekklesia is is a group of believers which is not only locally but also globally as well.
Now we are to find ways to meet with other believers but nowadays you can get pretty creative with meeting other believers.
If you read my definition of church above, "a body which organizes 'in the name of the Lord'" that's pretty much what I said :)doens't have to be building, etc.
That being said--you are required by the Bible, to "witness" to others about Jesus, as well. It's never supposed to be "just you and God."
Yes it can get lonely, but its our path....I also believe as you come through the wilderness of travel you will find your tribe....This tribe doesnt have to be a church because you and I are the church....We are One......Im sending you prayers for your journey, and a greater level of awareness which is my same prayer for me
Thank you, I really do appreciate that. I could use it right now, I think haha. As far as the meme goes--yes, but even "enlightenment" itself must and will fall away.
