Church people identify with their
church and it's doctrines, not with Jesus. Christians identify with
and follow Jesus, His words and His commandments. Many people
profess to be Christians but they are not of Jesus, thus they are not
Christians.
There is a huge divide between church people and
disciples of Jesus. Church people discriminate on the basis of their
church denomination. If you talk about Jesus they will ask you which
church you belong to. If you reply that you belong to Jesus and not
to a church, you are immediately viewed and treated with suspicion,
most often with contempt. They look down on you. If you
follow Jesus and associate with Him, you will be hated by all men,
especially church people.
There is a clear separation
between church people and the children of God, the true followers of
Jesus. They are not of the same kingdom. Churches are respected by
the world. They are of the world, with beautiful architecture, to
impress the world. The clergy wear special clothes to distinguish
them. They have titles and are respected by the world, but they are
an abomination to God.
Church people and Jesus' followers are
incompatible. They are not of the same kingdom Jesus' disciples
follow Him and live according to His words, the words that He spoke
and taught, as recorded in Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. "3By
this we know that we have come to know Him, if we keep His
commandments. 4The one who says, “I have come to know Him,” and
does not keep His commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in
him; 5but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly
been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him: 6the one who says
he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He
walked." 1 John 2:3-6.
Do you follow Jesus or do you belong
to a church?
Are you of the kingdom of God or of this world?
May
Jesus bless you.
