Religion Verses Christ.....What is the Difference?

But the fruit of the spirit is love, joy, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. If we live in the spirit, let us also walk in the spirit. Let us not be desirous of vain glory, provoking one another, envying one another. If these are not the motives, all is meaningless. Let us have good stewardship toward one another, bear each other's burdens in love and encouragement. Gal. 6:22

Don't beat and abuse others with your religion. Are you operating in the fruits of the spirit. The Holy Spirit is Love and what ever the motive it must be demonstrated with Love for one another or it is simply not of his Spirit. It has to be God's way that works through our hearts, one towards another. I had to purge all self righteous behavior, this is the worst of evils. It is corrupt and self serving. It is misleading and operates in the high and evil realms of the enemy. The enemy knows the scriptures word for word and he uses them for his advantage to accuse and condemn.

Christ says you will know his by there fruits. When fruits are mentioned in the Bible it is the fruits that the spirit is producing. Love, peace, long suffering, gentleness, goodness, faith, meekness, temperance. This was a huge eye opener to me several years ago and totally changed my whole perception and brought me to a state of repentance. I discovered even knowing the Bible that is was totally useless without these applications. All vain and no purpose. Religion is nothing but Doctrine and is dead without the working of the spirit in Love. PERIOD
