The world is full of all kinds of religion - even within what is called
'Christianity' - where man does good works to become a better person or to be
accepted by God. Sound familiar?
Yet, the problem is that such is impossible. Good
works do not change who you are on the inside. No amount of feeding the
poor is going to make you stop wanting to fornicate. No matter how much time
you spend caring for the elderly, it won't remove the urge to lie. We are only
changed inwardly as we abide in relationship with Jesus
Christ. A dynamic relationship is awareness and epignosis a knowledge from a higher source...from an indwelling God. Why wait or guess, looking in all the wrong places? gets old over time.
Internalization, expectation, faith real love and reason for life. No log Hut or stone pile can contain God only you can, that's why we're the temple now. The external artifices are removed by God sending his son to die for us, we're now the temple, once we get to realize what we become maybe we can finally change to come next step is to know what faith might look like by walking in spirit and truth. Blessings
Know the difference? 1 Corinthian 1-4 is an entirely different world than us at the helm.
The thing to remember is this: Religion concentrates on the
external (outward performance). but
relationship with God deals with what is internal (inward transformation) (I Samuel 16:7; Matthew 23:27; John 7:24) John 17.
However, there are plenty of people who are willing to let you try to
work up your redemption in servitude to them (their opinions, rules,
etc.). Narrowway is about grace and awareness and your being connected to life source.
Scripture references the Kj3 and Young;'s literal.
