Religion and a Three Piece Suit

 Listen to me today....
Religion will send you to hell with a 3 piece suit on and a bible in your hand! 

 It's not about religion folks, it's about a personal one on one relationship with Jesus, the Son of the Living God. 

 You see, religion is humanity trying to reach God by their own efforts whilst Christianity is God paying the price Himself. In essence Him reaching down to us..it’s a relationship with our Creator.

 Still not convinced? Has religion still got a strangle hold on you? Consider Isaiah 64:6 "ALL of us have become like one who is unclean, and all our righteous acts are like filthy rags." It's not about what you or I do....It's about what He did!

 Galatians 2:21 tells us, "I do not nullify the grace of God, for if righteousness comes through the Law, then Christ died needlessly."

 It's all about the blood of Christ! Have you been washed in His blood? Are you covered with His blood or are you trampling in it?

 Did you note that it isn't just our sins that are filthy to God but even our RIGHTOUSNESS? You see, Gods standard is HIMSELF, who is the perfect example of Holiness and purity.

  "For it is by God's grace that you have been saved, through faith. It is not the result of your own efforts, but God's GIFT, so that no one can boast about it." (Ephesians 2: 8-9)

 This means that it is NOT by attending 'church', how often you read your bible, how many hours you spend in prayer or even believing in God! Satan believes in God and trembles at the sound of His voice and flees at the sound of His name.

 "God is Light and in Him there is no darkness at all" (1 John 1:5) So, to a pure a Holy and perfect God, ANY sin/darkness would naturally be foreign and unacceptable to Him so, humanly speaking, it IS impossible for us to be saved and that is why God demonstrated His love for us by coming down in human form as the Lord Jesus Christ. And He is not just a way to the Father but the ONLY way!

 "And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved." (Acts 4:12)

In His Love,
