The Poison Of Religion

1st remember....Christianity is a religion, but not all religions is Christianity!!! The Poison Of Religion, Whomever It Comes From!!! If you read The Bible, The New Testament, we discover a Jesus who is in fact frequently embroiled in conflict-------most of which He provokes Himself (like healing on the Sabbath). And every single one of these clashes is with VERY religious people. NOT ONE HOSTILE ENCOUNTER INVOLVES A "PAGAN". Not until the end, at least, when the Roman troopers get a hold of Him----but He was handed over by who?------the religious establishment. If you were reading the Gospels without bias or assumption, you would have no trouble whatsoever coming to believe that religion is the enemy-----or in the hands of the enemy. Jesus' opponents are all people we would consider to be highly invested in doing religion right. They certainly considered themselves to be so. You will want to keep this in mind if you would know Jesus, really.~ John Eldredge (From The Book "Beautiful Outlaw") Other excerpts: The deceiver of Christ wants to distort Him, and he does it through religious people. Millions of people who have spent years attending church, don't really know God. Their heads are filled with stuffing about Jesus, but they do not experience Him, like His 12 disciples did. There are millions more who love Jesus Christ but experience Him only occasionally, more often stumbling along short of the life He promised, like Lazarus, these are still wrapped in their grave clothes. Can anything be more diabolical? (This is the damage, people who think they know, but truly don't know, the real Jesus, who is the original outlaw). Religion gives the impression of having Christ, while it inoculates you from experiencing the Real Thing, (like a flu shot, you just get a little touch of the flu, and it keeps you from getting whole deal). If you want to destroy an economy, flood the market with COUNTERFEIT BILLS. (If you want to destroy the cause of Christ & His teachings, flood the world with a bunch of counterfeit christians). ************************************************ Some people KNOW the real Truth, some think they do, some are turned off because they won't even try to find it, and get aggravated at those who have & judge those who are not for sure, so they just repeat what they have heard, whether it's pro or con. Which breeds confusion to many. If you are so lead, google these words "the author of confusion" and see who it points it's finger at. God Bless ~ Cochise
