Another aha moment that I had, while reading the Bible after escaping organized, man-made religion 

[@eliyoder491]

For all of you that try to please God and be religious or follow other people’s standards. Jesus wants you to know to follow him because he wants to have a personal relationship with you and live in your heart so that you can become a branch that is attached to Jesus-The-Vine according to John, chapter 15.

[@Nerobyrne]

But what if I don't want that? 🤔

[@zellerized]

​@@Nerobyrnewith love, then you don't know the great love of God or what is good for you. Time is short. Living without the One that knows all things by your side is fruitless. Everything under the sun is vanity - WITHOUT GOD.

[@MeAndMoeMoe]

Amen 🙏🌏🙏

[@NaBaronLes]

Religion is not the bad guy... it's hyper-religiosity that is. The religion of Christianity is a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. That's the true religion. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.

[@Nerobyrne]

@@zellerized okay but but we're talking about Jesus.

[@vanishingfox1339]

I have to say Eli you got me coming back around to studying. I never truly lost faith but the churches and their goers made me separate myself due to them not practicing what they preach. I had a little bit of a guilty feeling of not participating in church but I now feel better knowing that others are out there following and studying on their own.

You literally answered an atheists question. Thank you Eli! You are truly amazing!

[@patriciatoomingtheplantpar2558]

No, NO HE DIDN'T 😂😂 I'm atheist and I have no idea why people in this day and age of science based facts haven't outgrown the control culture of myths, fantasy, fairytales and folies. Religion and gawd are for those too weak to rely on there adult selves to make decisions, it's like always having a parent around to keep you in line. If you need a phantom in a burning bush, or hiding behind a mountain or in the sky to tell you not to Fk your neighbors wife while you yourself are married THATS SAD! If you need a phantom ghost whispering to you not to be a bad person, you weren't a good person to start with! If you're a parent and your child is gone and you didn't know it, you're a BAD PARENT! Funny how you all only pick out the parts you like, mostly out of context and blast that rubbish out, but conveniently don't see the stoning of women, raping of children, child sacrifice, concubines, slavery, genital mutilation, mass genocide... Should I go on?

As a lost little Catholic kid, I was blown away when my teachers and priest gave me a Bible to read for ‘First Communion’-but ‘it’s not what you think…’ I had wanted to read the Word, been drawn to it, and when I shared at the ceremony that I was excited to start digging into the Bible, their response took the air out of the room. “Oh no, it’s not for reading. It’s just for you to have-a gift! But don’t read it.” Didn’t take too long for me to start, though I started at the beginning. It’s a book, right? I’d tried a number of times but would lose momentum at the books of the Kings or Lamentations. 😅 Eventually however my ears and heart were ready for the words of the Gospel. Praise God!
