But if you are led by the Spirit, you are not under the Law.Galatians 5:18
Has anyone ever labeled you a religious zealot or hyper religious? Usually those who do this don’t understand really what religion is to someone who really loves Jesus. Religion kills and Jesus sets free.
The people being critical of you can’t see your heart. They don’t know your joys and struggles. When I hear the word religion I think of the Sadducees and Pharisees in Jesus’ day. I don’t want any part of being compared to them.
Satan is the one who brings this division and any kind of divisiveness because he wants to destroy relationships, get people bickering at one another, and keep people from a dynamic ‘non religious’ church where they could actually grow in Christ and maybe then understand why the term religious is not a warm fuzzy term.
PRAYER: Many people don’t have a personal relationship with Jesus’ and call people they think are a bit wacky for Christ religious. I pray for anyone I know who feels this way that you will help them know Jesus as Lord and not as religion. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
