Religion Enslaves Us All: Life Is For Living by silica(m): 7:04pm On Mar 14, 2013
LIFE IS FOR LIVING
So I commend the enjoyment of life, because there is nothing better for a person under the sun than to eat and drink and be glad. Ecclesiastes 8.15
Religion holds people in bondage, but faith sets people free.
Religion promotes suffering, faith promotes enjoyment.
Religion promotes piety and self exultation. Faith promotes God.
Religion tells you what to do to get to heaven, faith brings heaven to you.
Religion separates, faith unites. Religion kills, faith gives life.
Religion ostracises, faith brings back home. Religion brings fear, doubt, anxiety and condemnation, but faith brings freedom, boldness, courage, and justification.
Religion pleases man, faith pleases God.
When Jesus came on earth, he was too different for religious people. He was eating and drinking, and healing people. He was restoring hope and bringing joy to everyone that he met. So religious people conspired and killed him and started a religion upon his death. Jesus did not come with a religion, he came with life from heaven. He came with faith from God. He came with a relationship. He said in Mark 9:23, that “to him that believes all things are possible”. He said believe in God, believe also in me. John 14:1. Jesus brought life, healing, deliverance, joy peace, favour, blessing, laughter, goodness and health. But religion tries to postpone all these in the guise that you will have them when you get to heaven. What do you want child of God? Religion or Faith. Life or death. Suffering or enjoyment. Sin or righteousness. The bible says in 1 Timothy 6:17 that God gives us all things richly to enjoy. 3 John 2 says I wish above all things that you may prosper and be in health. If you suffer one more day, it’s your fault. God has given you life. Choose life and live. The bible says in Deuteronomy 30:19, behold I set before you life and death. Choose life and live. Life is for living and not for enduring.

only those truly liberated have the eyes to see. those deeply enslaved will come here and throw words they neither know the origin or their true meaning

You are right religion enslaves us all , but Jesus came to set us free.

Surprisingly , it was the religious of his day that rejected and killed him, looks like we are in the same position as we were 2000 years ago.

Jesus Christ himself was not religious

-He didnt go and worship in the synagogue/temples
-He never prayed
-He never observed or taught the scriptures
-He never got baptized

That you are delusional.

A religious man claiming that he is not in a religion.

A religious slave claiming that he is free.

depends on your definition of freedom.

You can think you are free, but if you are enslaved to lusts and habits, you are actually a slave to those desires.

"...When you were slaves to sin, you were free from the control of righteousness." - Romans 6:20
