When religion gets in the way of a true relationship with the Divine Creator of Manifestation it's time to make a choice! God the Supreme Diety and Father of us all should always have a giganic space in our heart. A scripture comes to mind that we should all grasp in it's consciousness and not based on religious dogma. Consciousness is more prevading than a set of idealized words one is taught to believe. The scripture should be viewed for its underlying consciousness or underlying concept as you prefer, of the scripture, "No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve God and mammon." Matthew 6:24 AKJV, Bible. Yes, money is at the forefront here but so is loving the Creator with all your heart and putting him first. I like the way that Logan P. Smith puts it, "Those who set out to serve both God and Mammon soon discover that there is no God. Yes, you can take the Creator and His Word "Out of the Box" that religiousity has placed it in.
There are several cross references to the "No man can serve two masters" scripture e.g, "1 Kings 18:21 Elijah came near to all the people and said, "How long will you hesitate between two opinions? If the LORD is God, follow Him; but if Baal, follow him." But the people did not answer him a word." And this final one for the sake of this article is, Galatians 1:10 For am I now seeking the favor of men, or of God? Or am I striving to please men? If I were still trying to please men, I would not be a bond-servant of Christ." I think that the Apostle Paul brings this point home. Who are you trying to please? Are you trying to please the "Church"? Please, don't miss the point. I am talking about upholding religiousity in favor of true relationship and communication with God the Creator. What is this religiousity I am speaking of?
A religion is an organized approach to human spirituality which usually encompasses a set of narratives, symbols, beliefs and practices..., web dictionary. Religiosity, in its broadest sense, is a comprehensive sociological term used to refer to the numerous aspects of religious activity, dedication, and belief (religious doctrine). Another term that would work equally well, though is less often used, is religiousness, wikipedia.,it is also "The degree to which one believes in and is involved in religion. For example, attending church, volunteering for the church, giving donations to" ...bitbucket.icaap.org. And, it also encompasses, "The quality of being religious or pious, especially when zealous or exaggerated", wiktionary.org but, what is this saying? It's saying that when your religion with all its cerimonies and religious doctrine and externals gets bigger than your God then "It" becomes your God! The Creator is not the One you love but "It" is the one you hold dear. The "It" I am speaking of is the Veil of Religiosity that for thousands of years has ensnared the best of men. It is the ultimate trap that get's man every time because it appeals to his mind and inflates his heart.
Many have and will continue to break free from its false represenentation. Many have given their heart and soul and not to mention poured millions upon millions of dollars into keeping this entity alive. But the day has arrived that truth snd consciousness wane no more. For the power of the Universe (God) has demonstrated that He has been able to subdue deception with little resources and a handful of conscious men. May the eternal one receive glory and honor. And, may the veil continue to fall from the eyes, mind, and hearts of all men.
If you truly grasp what I'm saying then it would'nt matter if you Christian, Buddist, Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, or Agnostic because it's the principles we dealing with, as they relate to a Supreme Diety. You'd clearly see that this is a universal truth as it relates to God the Father, that nothing should get in the way of you having a real experience and communication with your Creator aspecially not religion! Yes, you can take the Creator and His Word out of , "The box". If everyone got on this one cord then all the veils would fall and ther would be no more religious veils to cloud the "One love" all men should take hold of. Blessings to you all.
