Gentle reader,
things we can all learn from Television TWO great EPISODES of " West Wing"
And AnotherGood episodes... The religious right for the most part, have become the Pharisees in the Gospels... they only know rules, rituals, traditions and condemnation... they have the disease of religion! Christ Jesus / God when understood correctly is all about love, mercy, kindness, etc... The Old Testament in a nutshell was God's way of showing what religion produces, whereas the New Testament is God showing what love, mercy, etc... produces. Far to many Christians are stuck in the OT & blinded by religion!
It's never been about Religion but about mercy and kindness. Something that isn't preached let alone talked about much any more...
Religion is the fashionable substitute for belief. - Oscar Wilde
In the beginning the church was a fellowship of men and women centering on the living Christ. Then the church moved to Greece where it became a philosophy. Then it moved to Rome where it became an institution. Next, it moved to Europe , where it became a culture. And, finally, it moved to America where it became an enterprise.--Richard Halverson, former chaplain of the United States Senate
He hath showed thee, O man, what is good; and what doth Jehovah require of thee, but to do justly, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with thy God? (Mic 6:8 )
