Beloved! We have a major problem in Christianity! I use to think that sin was the main and only problem in Christianity. But Christ my Lord revealed to me that, although sin is the underlying problem, RELIGION is posing to be the fast surfacing problem in Christianity and in the world. Religion is in the way of our perfection in Christ. It does not accept Christ for who He is. ONE with FATHER GOD!! Serious stuff..... Our Lord said in John 10:30, The Father and I are one.” If you are too deep in religion so that you find it very difficult to accept this truth about Christ, you are certainly misled. What this mean is that you do not accept the truth about God and His perfect plan for us in Christ Jesus. Ephesians 1. May God give us the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him in Christ, so that we can contemplate the truth and be set free from religion. Amen Read my comments below and be very blessed. Christ in you, the hope of glory! Jesus and I love you very much!!💝💛❤ The Scripture says in John 1:1-5, In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He (the Word) was in the beginning with God. All things came into being through Him (the Word), and without Him (the Word) not one thing came into being. What has come into being in Him (the Word) was life, and the life was the light of all people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. V14 says, And the Word became flesh (Christ) and lived among us, and we have seen his glory, the glory as of a father’s only son, full of grace and truth. The WORD is JESUS CHRIST!! And John 1:10-13 says, He was in the world, and the world came into being through him; yet the world did not know him. He came to what was his own, and his own people did not accept him. But to all who received Him, who believed in His name, He gave power to become children of God, who were born, not of blood or of the will of the flesh or of the will of man, but of God. MY QUESTION IS: Have you received Christ? Do you truly believe in Him? Do you truly accept Him as your Lord and Saviour? Do you see Him as being ONE with the Father? Do you have FAITH in Him? Do you LOVE Him? Questions! Questions!! If your answer to any of these questions is NO, Im sorry to say that, you are NOT SAVED and definitely not looking to spend eternity with Christ. Only those who actually believe in Him from the heart are saved! Religion hated the new light that came into the world over 2000 years ago. They hated our Lord for bringing a new order of LOVE and FREEDOM to lost and vulnerable souls. He did this so that we may be able to worship God in spirit and truth. They hated Him so much that they crucified our Lord and Saviour, hoping to bring an end to His ministry. Religion was then, His major problem and hello.... Religion is still our main problem today. Our Lord made a statement in John 15:23-25, Whoever hates me hates my Father also. If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not have sin. But now they have seen and hated both me and my Father. It was to fulfil the word that is written in their law, ‘They hated me without a cause.’ Religion did everything to prevent Christ from fulfilling His purpose over 2000 years ago. Unfortunately, religion is still trying harder to prevent us from being perfected in Christ. Now I know why God decided to enact a New Covenant through His only precious Son. Because the Old Covenant (Religion) was faulty. Heb 8:7-8 says, For if that first covenant had been faultless, there would have been no need to look for a second one. God finds fault with them when He says: “The days are surely coming, says the Lord, when I will establish a new covenant with the house of Israel and with the house of Judah; read up to v12. Beloved! Satan is trying to use religion to prevent Gods purpose from coming into perfect fulfilment as set out in Eph 1:4. God chose YOU in Christ before the foundation of the world to be holy and blameless before Him in love. In other words, to be perfected in Christ. When we were born into this world, we were born into sin committed by our ancestors, Adam and Eve. It was never our choice in the first place. God cursed and banished them from His Kingdom. Read Genesis 3. Then God the Father in His infinite love and compassion soon decided to forgive humanity and reconcile us back to Himself by sending His only Son to sacrifice Himself for the redemption of our sins, for a newness of life in Christ Jesus in order to reconcile us back to Himself. Glory! Glory!! But the truth was that, we couldnt enter into the Kingdom of God as sinners. There is a condition for entering:- Our Lord said in John 3:3&5, Unless we are born again, of water and Spirit, we cannot enter in. Not so easy ehhhh!! We must be born again, in order to be transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of Gods dear Son and be perfected in Christ Jesus, so that we may spend eternity with both Father and Son. Our original sin is like tough stains on a coloured garment, very hard to remove with an ordinary bleach, since the colouring could be damaged as well. Lets relate this to religion and sin. Religion represents the colour on our garments which makes it impossible for bleach to be used. Religion is always in the way of our progress in Christ. Lets not forget that it was a shadow of good things to come. Therefore, we need a special powerful brand of bleach that can perfectly remove this thick stains from our coloured garments without damaging the garments. For us Christians, the only thick bleach capable of removing the stains from our coloured garments without damaging the garment is The Blood of Jesus. Religion is not capable of cleansing us from sin. Not in the past, certainly not now. Now, once we are saved, we must all go through a transition process, which is like passing raw GOLD through fire to make it pure and perfect. We must all go through the test of fire. Only those who endure and persevere in faith to the end will be rewarded accordingly in the day of our Lord. But religion always get in the way of our perfection in Christ. The mix and match between religions, superstitions, mysticisms, spiritualisms and Christianity is becoming rampant. Religion will not let go, especially because of its place in Christianity. We must realise that it was the shadow of things to come. Christ has now brought the new order into the world. Religion has recruited many Christians into its shadowy and false institutions and now using them to fight against each other, in order to slow down or stop Gods process of our perfection in Christ. Religion plans to undermine, defy or stop our Lords purpose and His commandment to LOVE ONE ANOTHER as He has LOVED US. We are told in Mat 12:25, “Every kingdom divided against itself is laid waste, and no city or house divided against itself will stand. We must let go of religion and come into Christianity, into Christ, so that the fullness of Gods plan and perfection for us Christians will be fulfilled. We are Gods perfect plan in Christ to promote His New Covenant and change the disastrous situation Adam and Eve managed to put us all into in the first place. Surely, Christ is THE way out! You are very loved in the BELOVED! You are treasured, appreciated and part of Gods plan for a perfect Kingdom here on earth. Come away from religion into Christianity, into a lifestyle of faith that works through love and powered by the grace of God in Christ Jesus!! My prayer is that those in religion will come to know and accept Christ and obey His words which are spirit and life, so that Christ will make them righteous and present them holy to God. In Jesus mighty name. Amen! HAPPY DAY IN CHRIST!!!
