The spirit of religion is one of satans most destructive tools. What it cannot control, it seeks to destroy.
Revelation 18:4 KJV And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
The church has thrown this shiny thing on the ground to distract you. To keep you from looking back on all the evil done in it's name since it was begat. How many of you know that the church is NOT the bride of Christ, but the Holy City is? How many of you know that the church is not the body of Christ, but you and all the other believers are? Your body is the Temple of God.
1 Corinthians 3:16 KJV Know ye not that ye are the temple of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?
Leave out of the doctrines of men and find the wisdom of the Lord in Christ.
John 14:8 Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.
9 Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Show us the Father?
10Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.
11Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.
13 And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 If ye shall ask any thing in my name, I will do it.
15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
16 And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another Comforter, that he may abide with you for ever;
17Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive, because it seeth him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him; for he dwelleth with you, and shall be in you.
18 I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.
19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me: because I live, ye shall live also.
20At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you.
21 He that hath my commandments, and keepeth them, he it is that loveth me: and he that loveth me shall be loved of my Father, and I will love him, and will manifest myself to him.
What may bake your noodle AND deepen faith is this: First born Son>Jehovah>Jesus Christ. The Christ WAS speaking the Truth in the above verses... Christ made ALL things new, if you but believe..
The word Religion literally translates to "return to bondage".
Webster's Collegiate Dictionary traces the word back to an old Latin word religion meaning "taboo, restraint." A deeper study discovers the word comes from the two words: re and ligare. Re is a prefix meaning "return," and ligare means "to bind;" in other words, "return to bondage." Do you still want some of that "old-time religion"?

Christianity is the way of a Father with His children. Not a system of dos and don'ts
I won't have anything to do with organized religion. It's man made. Full of doctrinal error and contributes to the blindness our nation suffers.
Only God and His Word.
Love this Patriot
what in the hell is on his neck?
Looks like a scarf with a skull printed on it. He’s probably covering up neck wrinkles.
Loved me based Mel more and more.
I miss his Aussie accent circa Mad Max II. He's been away too long.
I think he was born in the US.
True that. But we have a chronic shortage of public figures with backbones over here right now.
Perhaps we can do shared custody? Kek.
Powerful words, Mel. Thanks. It had to be said.
