I was doing the dishes this morning, and an overwhelming thought popped into my head. It said "true christianity is not a religion, it's a relationship".
Wow, so simple, and so true. You will not find God is just going to church on sunday, or practicing religious rituals, listening to preachers, tithing, or any of those things.
To be a real christian is to have an intimate relationship, in your heart and mind, with your creator alone. Nothing else is necessary.
Church can be a good thing if you need to be around brothers and sisters, and some pastors are good, but some are seriously mislead and too many people blindly follow them like they are Jesus Himself. They are not, they are just regular people like you and me. God gave us a brain, and in the end we, solely, are responsible for our own actions here on earth. We won't be able to say "Well, pastor Bob told me that".......it's up to each one of us to study on our own, pray on our own, and let God guide each one of us individually through these last days.
Being a christian does not mean being a member of a social group, or a member of a church, it's all about your own personal relationship with God and accepting the free gift of salvation from our savior, Jesus.
What say you???????
