It’s not religion, it’s a relationship with God through Jesus

KING SOLOMON ADVISES:

“And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent.” — John 17:3 (KJV)

Well spoken.

The religious spirit builds temples made by hands; but God dwells not in temples made with hands (Acts 7:48).

Religion offers ritual—but Christ offers reconciliation.

✝️ RELIGION VS. RELATIONSHIP

🏛️ Religion:

“This people honoureth me with their lips, but their heart is far from me.” — Mark 7:6 (KJV)

💝 Relationship with God through Christ:

“Because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.” — Galatians 4:6 (KJV)

🩸 THE BLOOD, NOT THE BUILDING

It is not religion that justifies—but Jesus Christ, the Living Way:

“By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us… through the veil, that is to say, his flesh.” — Hebrews 10:20 (KJV)

This is not dead ceremony.

This is a living covenant.

⚖️ FINAL JUDGMENT

In the end, Christ will not ask:

“Did you belong to a religion?”

He will say:

“I never knew you: depart from me…” — Matthew 7:23 (KJV)

Or:

“Well done, good and faithful servant…” — Matthew 25:21 (KJV)

Only those who are known—

—will enter.

Hold fast to the cross.

Speak to Him daily.

Trust not the system of men, but the Son of God, who gave Himself for you.
