My Thoughts by MizMyColi(f): 11:05pm On Jul 13, 2014


I think in these lines:


That :-


”God is not a belief-system.


Jesus is not a religion.


The good news is not a ticket to Heaven.

Church is not an address.

The Bible is not a book of doctrines.

Transformation is not behavior modification.

Community is not a meeting.

Grace has no exceptions.

Ministry is not a program.

Art is not carnal.

Women are not inferior.

Our humanity is not the enemy.

Sinner is not our identity.

Love is not a theory.

Peace is not a circumstance.

Science is not secular.

Sex is not filthy.

The herelife is not a warm-up for the afterlife.

The world is not without hope.

There is no “us” and “them.”

Tattoos are not evil.

Loving the earth is not satanic.

Seeing the divine in all things is not heretical.

Self-actualization is not self-worship.

Feelings are not dangerous and unreliable.

The mind is not infallible.”

More oft, I wish that our world would be devoid of Labels and Religion.

I have this inner desire that my worst enemies (religion and un-religion wise) would someday soon, become my friends.

I look forward to a world where despite our differences in belief, only one language is understood amongst all - Love



Though I had something similar here, on NL, before the tsunami. I thought to share it again, as a reminder, more especially to me - of what really matters.

Issues like religion has really played a big role in most divorce today - It has been the bane of great unions.

I'm the type that loves to challenge thoughts, ideas and theories, I pray it doesn't get the better of me in our union wink

Tell me about you boo, would you be willing to spend the rest of your life with that one dude that blows your mind away but doesn't really share in your religious views? Say an atheist.

In reality El, It would take grace, But I could. It all boils down to respect, not trying to shove what He believes down my throat and vice versa

Albeit, I admit that It'd be a whole lot easier to live with and love someone who shares my belief....there are just two of them in the world right now who have very close ties with me.
