Religion Is Death--Choose Life

So many people are caught up in the deception of religion... everything from animism to Islam, Buddhism, New Age, Environmentalism, twisted forms of christianity.

All of these "isms" share the common belief that we can somehow manipulate the Spirit "out there" to consider us acceptable, and thus ensure that our fate is favourable.

Religion seems to be the "default" setting in the human spirit. We intuitively know that there is something there, that we fall short and that we need to do something about it.

True Christianity is anti-religious... in fact the early christians were considered to be atheists by the Romans because the God they worshipped didn't seem to make sense.

Christianity, stripped of all the traditions and accumulated trivia, says that you don't have to be religious to make God happy with you. In fact, God already loves you and desperately wants you to be a part of His family. In fact, He loves you so much that He sent His one and only Son into the world so that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

Jesus Christ died to set the whole world free from the curse of sin- it's like the judge takes the rap for the criminal.

God laid down His life to show us that there is a better way to live than striving for power and survival and proving that we are better than somebody else. The Creator died to save His creation.

It's crazy but true!

What's even crazier is that there are still billions of people out there trying all sorts of things to get peace with God when it's already there for the taking.

You don't have to pray five times a day-- in fact with Jesus your whole life becomes a prayer!

You don't have to fast through Lent or offer sacrifices to the spirits of your ancestors.

GOD ALREADY LOVES YOU.
THERE IS NOTHING YOU CAN DO TO ADD TO THAT

Just hold out your arms and receive His love.

Be blessed
In the precious name of Jesus
