Religion Never Worked

DID JESUS GIVE HIS LIFE, SO THAT WE MAY DO ALL THIS RELIGIOUS STUFF TODAY?

Apostle James R Winfree Sr, Revealing The Truth Of God's Holy Word In His Love:

You hear it all the time.

Religious Sunday's Worship and Do Nothing Church Leaders is Not Enough.

So many loving believers are emailing us and saying, they don’t really need to go to a religious church building…their relationship with God is personal.

They had it with organized Religion and it only benefits the.leaders, their families, and close friends.

The church buildings is a man-made invention, not Jesus Christ purpose.

I completely understand why a growing number of people are bailing on the self-centered leaders and their follower's. Even people who used to lead in the church often stop attending.

We’ve spent a lot of time working through the issue of declining church attendance (and growing disillusionment with the church) on this blogs and in my leadership media ministries. 

I get it.

The church is far from perfect. Life is complex. There are growing options. And the post-modern mind distrusts most things organized or institutional.

But as trendy as the idea of writing off the church may be, it’s a mistake.

While writing off the church passes as biblically thinking, it’s actually the opposite; what if it’s a simplistic and even reductionistic line of thinking that leads nowhere constructive?

While writing off the church passes as biblically thinking, What did God's Holy Word say about Religious Buildings built with human hands?

The Religious Buildings Isn’t Even Biblical, Is It?

People argue the idea of religious buildings isn’t even biblical.and they are correct.

So let’s start with the basics.

First, if you’re a Jesus Christ Believer or Christian, the church is not something you go to. It’s something you are.

You can’t disassociate from the church as a Jesus Christ Believer or Christian any more than you can disassociate from humanity as a person.

You don’t go to church. You are the church of God in Christ Jesus.

You don’t go to church. You are the church without walls or buildings, But you are His Body of many members. Amen..

Second, the church was not a human invention. Half-reading the New Testament with one eye closed will still lead you to the inescapable conclusion that the Church is in the Lord Jesus Christ.

In fact, most of the New Testament is about the teachings of Jesus. It’s about the work of the ministry and the members that Jesus initiated and ordained. I won’t fill this post with scripture verses that prove my point, because, quite frankly, you’d have to get rid of the majority of the New Testament to argue that the church was and is born again of water and Spirit believers according to Acts, read and study the Book.

If you want to get rid of the cold dead useless religious buildings, you need to keep Jesus Christ and the members of your and His body.

You can’t have one without the other. We need each other as His and our spiritual family. Like I said to an anointed man of God in Katy, Texas, ( His Nations Bishop Matt Miller ) many say blood is thicker than water, But I said to him, Holy Spirit is much thicker that fleshly blood, meaning our family members.

If you want to get rid of the religious services and stuff, you also need to obey and follow Jesus Christ. He created it us and we should have one another backs or be here for one another. Not only with words, But our deeds and actions. Period..

Please read and study Jer 23:1-4 and the complete chapter of Ezek 34, Please.

I understand that the idea of the church being imperfect makes some people despair. But Jesus Is Perfect and He is The One we serve and look to, Amen.

But rather than making us despair, the fact that Jesus Birth His church with imperfect people should make us marvel at God’s incredible love, grace, and mercy.

That God would use ordinary, broken human beings as vessels of His grace, and delight in it is awe-inspiring. He’s proud of how his grace is beating through your imperfect-but-redeemed life and through the church (have you ever read ( Ephesians 3: 10-11? ).

The idea that God would use you and me is pretty amazing. He had other options you do know.

He could have spoken to the world directly but instead chose to use broken people to showcase His love grace and mercy to a world in need of redemption.

The idea that God would use you and me is pretty amazing. He had other options. while writing this tears are in my eyes.

For sure, the religious leaders are missing God and His purpose, plan and will for His Church.

Preachers sin. and you are sinful.

Most of the New Testament is not a story of an idealized church where everything worked perfectly all the time (just read 1 Corinthians any time you’re frustrated with your ministers).

Most of the New Testament is a story of Jesus using his followers to spread His love in spite of themselves and as they overcome obstacle after obstacle.

The fact that Christ uses flawed people to accomplish His work on earth is actually a sign of His grace, not a sign of His absence.

The gospel story, as amazing as it gets at times, is a beautiful story of God’s grace, God’s power, and God’s redemption.

So, by the way, is your life, which reflects the gospel of the Savior more than you would want to admit.

The biblical truth of Jesus Christ gospel gives the world a front row seat to the grace of God.

The gospel truth in love and actions gives the world a front row seat to the grace of God.

The Church Has Helped Even Those Who Resent The Church

Finally, if you’re reading this article and you have any modicum of faith in Jesus, may I suggest your faith is actually the result of the mission of the church.

Very few people come to know Jesus because he appears to them supernaturally when they are alone and calls them by name.

Let's start Pastors, Members to help and support our own first and then help all others. Amem.

Almost all of us who follow Jesus have had our lives changed by a flawed body called the church that Jesus so passionately loves and calls his own.

Think about that.

We Need More Believers who put their love not only in words but with their actions.

Do we need more Believers doing God's will? Yes.

Do we need more humble Preachers? We do.

Do you we need authentic, transparent leadership? Absolutely.

Does the church need to change? Without a doubt.

The church needs continual reformation and transformation.

So what will the future look like?

Will we gather in love the way we do today in the future? In some ways yes; in others, no.

Hopefully, we gather more frequently and work through our differences at a deeper level and impact our communities more powerfully.

The Lord Jesus Christ said, Who is His Mother, Brothers, and Sisters?

But regardless of how the church gathers in the future, we will gather…we need to gather.

We Christians need each other, Yes, now more than ever.

And even if you don’t think you need other Christians, I promise you-you do, and so does our world.

Now, more than ever, the world needs Jesus Believers and Christian working together humbly under Christ to lead people into a growing relationship with Him, in whatever innovate and fresh forms that take.

The church is not all white people, black people, brown people, red people, yellow people, we are under and in Christ Jesus chosen people!!

Get It?.

 Lt’s just beginning to take shape for a brand new era that desperately needs it without religion, walls and skin color,  we all are blessed, not just the leadership...

The Ultimate Thinking Isn’t Going To Church…It’s Becoming His Church

People criticize the Preachers today as being consumeristic. And to some extent its the truth, Preachers cater to consumerism—often to our detriment. I agree that consumerism is a problem for Preachers today.

But ironically, much of the dialogue about why people are done with church pushes people deeper into Christ, and it pushes them into deeper discipleship: Here I am, all alone, worshipping God on my schedule when it’s convenient for me.

Listening to a podcast of your favorite preacher while you’re at the gym or on the back deck and pushing three of your favorite worship songs through your earbuds does not make you a more passionate Christ follower, or even reading this blog.

It usually makes you a loving effective one in Jesus Christ.

Disconnecting yourself from the community of true Jesus Believers is actually less faithful than connecting yourself to a flawed community.

If you think the church today isn’t enough (and arguably, we need to reform it), then do what the early Christians did.

If you want a more biblical church don’t gather weekly, gather daily. from house to house as it is found in Acts 2.

Get up before the sun rises to pray together with other Christians before you go to work. Pool your possessions. Don’t claim anything as your own.

Be willing to share your job, your home, your family and even your life because you follow Jesus and this just what He did for us.

Then you’ll be more authentic.

Again, If you want a more biblical church, don’t gather weekly. Gather daily. home to home, phone to phone and on here the social media with me, smiles.

And notice that the early church did indeed gather. 

Gathering always leads to some form of organizing.

To pretend the church doesn’t need to be organized is as logical arguing that society doesn’t need to be organized.

Because the community is inevitable, an organization is inevitable.

Because the community is inevitable, an organization is inevitable in God's Kingdom.

Our ability to organize and to accomplish more together than we can alone is one of the crowning achievements of humanity, and our ability to work together makes Christian effort far more effective. 

It’s also part of God’s design for how we should interact while we’re on this planet. Come to think of it, heaven is a community too.

The only one who wants us to believe that we are better off alone is our enemy.

If you really think about it, it’s actually a very clever tactic.

The only one who wants Christians to believe we’re better off alone is our enemy.Not Jesus because He calls for loving Biblical Loving Unity and Oneness, for we are many members into one body. Amen Church
