My conversation with another member concerning our perception of ‘ faith’

Before my walk back toward God I experienced the same thoughts as well. I always believed there was a God.
But trying to interject some logic into the matter. I thought where choosing or to even consider a religion . Why would I put all of my eggs into one basket, when so many are saying they “Are the One”

It just didn’t make sense. So instead I decided to simply respect the tangible gifts if you like that this world offers , ie Nature, Animals and marvelled at man’s ability via herbal medicines to heal ourselves naturally .

Like you I could logically justify , being a believer of Spiritual rather than a Specific religion.
But then. I just felt , this ideal was a bit too convenient , I after arriving at the threshold of using manifestation to improve my life (& by all accounts it was working) my spirit rather than become settled, Spiritually I became slightly restless again!
Although I was patient because I just knew I was almost at the truth.
Then I asked myself another question , if you respect Nature which clearly didn’t create itself, You’ve observed the power of Manifestation . But even then there is no guarantee you are learning this from a pure source.

Why don’t ditch the ‘ 3rd parties ‘ and cultivate a relationship with the one who Created it all?
& co-incidentally ( God as a way of interjecting at the right time)

I was expecting an item of furniture to be delivered, and was experiencing the most awful flu. I said to the guys delivering , “I’ll stay at a distance at distance because you don’t want to catch what I’ve got “😅
And one of the looked up at picture hanging on my wall .. it’s of the last supper. & he said ah your a Christian , I can see your suffering would you like us to pray for you. & I thought this is a bit strange, none the less kind. So said yes please .

He then joined hands with me & the other delivery guy who was a christian also , and began to pray , and for the first time in my life ever I experienced a shift in me, I know now it was the ‘Holy Spirit’ my physical didn’t leave right away . But my endless searching for the Truth & Light in this world did. Soon after I renewed my walk with God , and my questions were answered . Prayer as become an every day staple , and I’m answered. My life is now an updated and much improved version of what it’s ever been.

I feel fortunate Amen 🙏🏽

I realise that it’s no wonder Christ ian’s keep trying to share this phenomenal amount of Peace we get from knowing God.

Apologies for my lengthy testimony , but your response is a reminder of my personal journey toward rebounding with God .
Infact I think I’ll post this as a separate post in its self . Thank you for the inspiration. ✨

Many are finding that salvation has nothing to do with one's religion or denomination. And that religion is nothing but man-made philosophy. Religion did not die on the cross for our sins. The person of Jesus did. I feel blessed that I can trust that Jesus is no liar. When he says that he is the Way, the Truth and the Life, he means it with all his heart and soul.

I love that John 3:16 confirms that there's no need for good works before we can have salvation in him. He tells us to come as we are and he accepts us just as we are with unconditional love. I praise him for that. There really is no substitution for Christ and what he can do for our lives.
I don’t concern myself with theology or doctrine. I believe and act on my own experience.

Any time in my life I was stranded or lonely or heart-broken or trapped, SOMEBODY appeared to guide me or drag me to a better path.

Many if not most disagree with me, but I believe “all the gods” are the same God, if followers are truly seeking enlightenment.

Never mind the “Holy Books” supposedly given by divine dictation. Never mind the “saintly representatives on earth.” Whether priests or mega church founders, they are impostors. Not all, but the vast majority. In one way or another, they work ceaselessly to pry money from the hands of the poor.

I love the Bible as literature, and many genuine inspirations. I’ve read it numerous times. But there’s a great deal of “social engineering” at work there, and the other Books as well.

In my opinion, which I do not try to impose on others.

@Mamapolo2016 I can’t fault you for thinking this way. Simply because what you say has been proven, there are too many churches & individuals getting extremely wealthy from misguided folk.

This is why discernment is key . Most of us have it, there’s nothing wrong with one investigating a religious organisation before one because invested .

Do they assist their congregation as community and individually

Are they working tirelessly within their community?

If their worth as been then there’s every good reason why they should be ministering.

As well as this there are many people who simply choose to worship God on a one to one basis. Performing charitable works as part of their everyday lives.

Discernment prevents us from falling prey to false churches and idols.
Thanks for you comms I pray you happen across a person , or church who is interested in your spiritual needs more than profit.
I can promise it will be a wonderful experience
For you 🙏🏽
I think it's a fine length and a great post!
