Spiritual or Religious?

<< < (2/2)

Kat:

Everybody claims to want the truth, but what is it that Ray used to say, "Hell hath no fury like a Christian just shown the Truth."  I think the church is totally blind to what is spiritual and the truth. To people in the world/church it's all about the physical and rewards, just like with their prosperity teaching. But Jesus says something different.

Mark 10:42  Jesus called them together and said, "You know that those who are regarded as rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their high officials exercise authority over them.
v. 43  Not so with you. Instead, whoever wants to become great among you must be your servant,
v. 44  and whoever wants to be first must be slave of all.

So a servant and a slave is the truth of what you must become. I don't see that many Christians would be willing to sink to the bottom of their hierarchy church system, they have their reward.

mercy, peace and love

John from Kentucky:
When Jesus was near the end, He looked forward to returning to be with God the Father.

I think I'll follow Him.  Once you have God, or rather God has you, everything else falls into place and you receive all things and don't have any worries.

The 1st commandment is to put God first in your life, and Him alone.

wonder how far this goes because i find in in my life the pat on the back helps,  often times its puzzling we are made one way only to become another!
designed by God.  why all the trouble?  our human nature is so fickle   i believe Paul talked about this too "i do what i don't want to do...."     We all have this first Adam nature  to be changed into the Christ nature.  I am guilty  and no good can come out of me except  the Christ  which is not of my doing but His and we are all living in this state of limbo ( come Lord Jesus)  its seems that way  He chooses to work His nature in us is very painful  the white firer flames.  my mind says  why all the torture?  why the pain?   there is no answers  only to look at the fruit that it brings.  The last few years of Rays life were so beautiful, so full of thanksgiving deep in his being.  it made me cry to read his letters to us.  i posted a small part of one and the response was great    My facebook friends are hungry for the Christ.  The cost was great  or was it?
