those of us who see religion for what it is know they have used our Fathers name to commit many sins ,and break His laws ,not to use His name in vain .
some who claim to be spiritual but forsake His laws are just as bad ,
Christ said if you love me keep my commandments ,if you say you love me and don't ,you are a liar and the truth is not in you ,
for sin is transgression of the law ,my law's ,I wrote in stone with my finger but more importantly for those who love me ,their hearts ,
to deny mine and my word is to deny me ,if you deny me before men ,I will deny you before the Father ,
to keep the law to show love, which is the love of the Father and love for His children ,so to willfully break them sends a clear message we don't really know Him ,and He said
"My sheep know my voice and another they wont follow "
but the world is so set to act on their imagination and say they heard from Him ,thereby causing shame to His name ,and a blemish on His creations ,
a sin many refuse to see they commit so thereby wont repent ,
if we offend the least of His ,it is better we were never born ,,He said to drown yourself ,then you wont keep doing harm to His ,
many hate religion today ,but it is not Gods fault ,it is because of men who used His name in vain to do of their good pleasure and not His
so I too am a spiritual creature ,but far from religious

The church has been interpreting Christ's teaching the way it suited its agenda.

Adding to the word of God brings a curse upon the one who does it. Taking away from the Word of God also brings a curse upon those who do it. If one is going to quote Jesus and then make up stuff that jesus never said they have added to the Words of Jesus and thus the curses will be added to them..

1 john3:4Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law

1john3:23And this is his commandment, That we should believe on the name of his Son Jesus Christ, and love one another, as he gave us commandment. 24And he that keepeth his commandments dwelleth in him, and he in him. And hereby we know that he abideth in us, by the Spirit which he hath given us.

1john 5:2By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments. 3For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous. 4For whatsoever is born of God overcometh the world: and this is the victory that overcometh the world, even our faith.

1 john2:3And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments. 4He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him

Exodus 31:18And he gave unto Moses, when he had made an end of communing with him upon mount Sinai, two tables of testimony, tables of stone, written with the finger of God.

2 corr 3: 3Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.

18No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.

since Moses seen the back side of Gods glory on Sinai ,and Christ said many time s when you seen me you have seen the Father ,but scripture says God wrothe the law with His finger ,but no man at any time has seen God who do you think wrote the commandments if not Christ
well you made like it wasn't there ,here it is ,any more questions I would be happy to do my best ,but keep in mind I am just a messenger ,never claimed to be perfect ot God ,,but it says what I said it said ,,just as He would have spoke it to you himself ,since it was his word and what He said ,He did ,he just used me to say it again

no agenda ,just the word ,where is my agenda ?
rckt148
didn't add anything ,or take away ,read the scripture yourself now I posted it ,
I gave it,as it flowed through my mind as He gave it to me ,but the scripture proves He said it
the rest you can look up yourself ,I promise its there

So you have not provided the part of scripture where Jesus said """"for sin is transgression of the law ,my law's ,I wrote in stone with my finger but more importantly for those who love me ,their hearts""" And you have refused to repent from providing a false quote of Jesus saying something He never said... So be it..
