I do not follow a religion, I follow Christ who is the door to the Father, the One in whom I have a relationship with.
That is why Jesus said he is the Way, the Truth, and the Life, no one comes to the Father except through Him. He is the One we follow because to get to your destination you must follow the right path.
I do not consider myself to be a member of a religion, but I am a member of a family. A family of both the blood and the spirit. The shed blood of Christ which was shed to cleanse me of my sin. But Christ shed His blood for all mankind not just His followers. That is why I am also a family member by the Spirit, because it is His spirit that lives in me.
Religion is a word created by the world to categorize all faiths so as to equivocate false faiths with the One True faith. By doing so, it gives an unbeliever the false sense of security. Just as their god is false, so to is their salvation.
I am of Christ, not of Peter, not of Paul, not of Calvin, nor of any other man made faith. I am of Christ, the One True God who descended into this septic tank we call the world, to live die and be resurrected as the final sacrifice from the beginning of time.

Feel free to leave a comment, and it will be posted immediately. However, if your comment is offensive in anyway, it will be removed.
I welcome differing opinions, I do believe in free speech, just not vulgar cuss laden comments written for the only purpose of offending people in general.
Differing opinions is not what I refer to, go ahead and disagree, but in a polite way so we can have a logical respectful discussion.
By offensive, I mean by being vulgar, as in swearing, using God's name in vain, or derogatorily offensive in a way you would not talk to your own Grandmother, Mother, or daughter, and then the comment will be removed.
I may not respond to your comment promptly, and there is no way with blogger for me to respond directly to your comment,. So come back and look for me to respond in a new comment to you by the name you post your comment with.
