“I am the way, the truth, and the life! No one comes to the Father except through Me.”
Religion is a God of containment!
Religion leads you into a works ethic and causes you to become ingrown. God calls you into faith in His Son and releases you to be His witness to the world.
Religion justifies itself through works. God justifies you by coming in a personal and intimate relationship built on faith in Christ Jesus.
God promises you an abundant life and to share Himself with you. He lives in you through the essence of the Holy Spirit and teaches you the truths of God.
Religion interprets scripture to justify itself and twists the Word of God to accomodate their needs and to codify God’s truths to our changing society.
God promises to fill you with His precious Living Water and to supply your every need according to the riches of His glory in Christ Jesus.
Religion is mostly empty of the Spirit of God and disavows the power and importance of the Holy Spirit.
You cannot understand God without the working of the Holy Spirit in your life. He brings you the reality of God untouched by religion. You see God for who He is and want more of Him.
Thought for the day:
“The practice of works leads to death but My Spirit brings life. You cannot do anything for Me! I completed the works of God on the cross. Come live with Me by faith and worship Me in Spirit and Truth.”
