Is religion a system of Faith? Or is religion a system of human reasons about who God is outside of true conversion and relationship with Him? Can you have faith in Christ outside of a form of religion?
Religion is human reasons and faith is a revelation from God through a personal relationship with Him. You can separate yourself from religion! You can have true faith without a form of religion.
Can you be a Christian and not be apart of the religion of Christianity? Christ never willed you the church to be a religion! The Church of Jesus Christ is not a religion, instead the Church is the priesthood of the Kingdom of God, the Church is the ambassador of the Kingdom of God and of the Christ, and the church is the Bride of Christ of the Kingdom of God!
Religion is not to be in between you and your relationship with God. In the beginning God create man to be in relationship with Him. There was no religion until the fall, and through Christ restoration has come and there is no longer a need for religion. Religion came from man’s wisdom not God’s wisdom. You can worship God without religion! You can be apart of a local company of believers without being apart of a religion! You can be apart of a company of Churches without being apart of a religion!
Yes we are Citizens of the Kingdom of God, and we are Members of the Body of Christ. We are not members of a religion! It is time to set your faith free from religion!
We can have true patriotism for our King and His Kingdom. We can be patriotic in heart, word, deed and action. Yes we can have love for our Lord and His Kingdom. We can have true nationalism for the Kingdom of God through heart and deeds of love. Our Citizenship is in the Kingdom of Heaven in Christ Jesus our King. Our nationality is in the Kingdom of God.
If you are Born Again, Born of the Spirit you can see the Kingdom of God, you can enter the Kingdom of God, and the Kingdom of God is you through the Holy Spirit, and you are a citizen of the Kingdom of God, and your King is Jesus Christ!
Now what about the earthly governments and nations? We are to obey those in authority for God appoints all authority, and all authorities are in the hand of the Lord. So in one word we have duel citizenship. Our Kingdom is the Kingdom in our hearts and through the power of the Holy Spirit will be establish through the transformation of our society and community to the Image of Christ. Today Christ can rule through civil authority through prayer and through heart.
Our Kingdom is a Spiritual Kingdom. We are called to be Spiritual in Christ, not religious. This can be done through faith, love and deeds. The Kingdom of God is in us, the Kingdom of God has already come, and the Kingdom of God will come with Christ return. Today we can establish the Kingdom through transformations of our societies and comminutes through prayer, faith, deeds, actions and the power of the Holy Spirit.
