Has religion caused you to become an Idol worshiper, and you now worship the law, religion, Judaism, Christianity, Sabbath days, the Old Testament Tithe, and the Jewish nation, above the truth of GOD’S Word in CHRIST JESUS? Because you fail to realize a man is not a Jew, which is one outwardly in the flesh; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter of the law; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
(Romans 2:28-29) For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter pf the law; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Brothers and sisters, we are now living in a time where religion is on the rise again, where people have forsaken truth to live out religious lies, now the religious lie has become the majority, truth has become a minority, and the spirit of deception is at an all-time high, because men love the religious lies more than they love the TRUTH/JESUS.
(1 John 2:20-21) But you have an unction from the Holy One, and you know all things.
I have not written unto you because you do not know the truth, but because you know it, and that no lie is of the truth.
Has religion deceived you into believing people are closer to GOD than you are, because of their religion, their nationality, where they come from, and who they are?……….lol
Has religion caused you to make an Idol out of Israel, the Jewish nation, and the law, because you have no real love for the TRUTH/JESUS?
(Romans 2:11-22, 24-29) For there is no respect of persons with God.
For as many as have sinned without law shall also perish without law: and as many as have sinned in the law shall be judged by the law; (For not the hearers of the law are just before God, but the doers of the law shall be justified.
For when the Gentiles, which have not the law, do by nature the things contained in the law, these, having not the law, are a law unto themselves: Which show the work of the law written in their hearts, their conscience also bearing witness, and their thoughts the mean while accusing or else excusing one another;) In the day when God shall judge the secrets of men by Jesus Christ according to my gospel.
Behold, you are called a Jew, and restest in the law, and make your boast of God, And know his will, and approve the things that are more excellent, being instructed out of the law; And are confident that you yourself are a guide of the blind, a light of them which are in darkness, An instructor of the foolish, a teacher of babes, which hast the form of knowledge and of the truth in the law.
You therefore which teachest another, do you not teach yourself?
You that preaches a man should not steal, do you steal?
You that say a man should not commit adultery, do you commit adultery?
You that abhorrest idols, do you commit sacrilege?
For the name of God is blasphemed among the Gentiles through you, as it is written.
For circumcision verily profits, if you keep the law: but if you be a breaker of the law, your circumcision is made uncircumcision.
Therefore if the uncircumcision keep the righteousness of the law, shall not his uncircumcision be counted for circumcision?
And shall not uncircumcision which is by nature, if it fulfil the law, judge you, who by the letter and circumcision does transgress the law?
For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter of the law; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Brothers and sisters, nowhere in the bible, the scriptures or in CHRIST JESUS, does it say, the law is the way to GOD, the truth of GOD, or the life of GOD.
For only JESUS is the way to GOD, the truth of GOD, and the life of GOD, and no man or woman can come to GOD or know GOD, unless they know CHRIST JESUS.
Nowhere where in the bible, the scriptures or in CHRIST JESUS, does it say, Judaism, religion, the Sabbath days, the tithe, or the nation of Israel is the way to GOD, the truth of GOD, or the life of GOD.
For only JESUS is the way to GOD, the truth of GOD, and the life of GOD, and no man or woman can come to GOD or know GOD, unless they know CHRIST JESUS.
(Galatians 6:11-15) You see how large a letter I have written unto you with mine own hand.
As many as desire to make a fair shew in the flesh, they constrain you to be circumcised; only lest they should suffer persecution for the cross of Christ.
For neither they themselves who are circumcised keep the law; but desire to have you circumcised, that they may glory in your flesh.
But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom the world is crucified unto me, and I unto the world.
For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision is profitable for any thing, nor uncircumcision, but a new creature.
(Galatians 3:22-29) But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe.
But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster.
For you are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ.
There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus.
And if you be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.
(Romans 2:28-29) For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter pf the law; whose praise is not of men, but of God.
Brothers and sisters, religious folks will try to argue, debate, and tear down the truth of this word, because they are religious, and there is no truth in them.
But the proof, clarity, and weight of this word is in the fact, that it is written by a Jew who was persecuting the gospel of JESUS CHRIST, the way of truth, and the followers of TRUTH/JESUS.
And this man Paul who persecuted the church of JESUS CHRIST was more of a Jew than many of the Jews today are.
And the Apostle Paul went on to write 14 books of the new testament, attain the high call of GOD in CHRIST JESUS, and become one of the greatest Apostles who ever lived.
And this Jew of Jews is the great Apostle who penned the words, ” For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that circumcision, which is outward in the flesh: But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter pf the law; whose praise is not of men, but of God.”

Reese Kemp, I was reading one of your sermons tonight and tears began to role down my face because you confirmed what I believed and what I was feeling. I had been trying to serve in a church but there are always stumbling blocks. Their doctrines, and rules and procedures, etc. It’s just me and Jesus. When I received my Bachelor in Theology, I moved back home and first got rejected from my home church because a female felt threaten by me and got over protected of her job, as she was doing orientation, and started bragging about how much tithe she brings to the church. Of course, the pastor was not going to choose me over her because she was her big tithe payer, and I wouldn’t even put her in that position because I already knew in my spirit what was more important to her. God took me out of that crazy situation and let me know, and I let her know, I didn’t have to belong to become one with God. I let the pastor know that she obviously was one of her key members and I didn’t want to come between that and I didn’t entertain negative situations. The other church at home, I’ve been doing so much work for, and sending money on occasions back home and when I visit, she, the pastor, would introduce me as Minister Baxter. I asked her about it, and she says she only says that because of my schooling. She can’t make me a minister herself until she has observed me and worked with me for a while. lol. I’ve spent the last five years of my life doing work for their church freely, because it comes from my heart, and from love. She was so pleased with the work, so she said, and glad for my generous love offerings (money). She even called me one day and asked if I wanted to help her buy the furniture for her new office in the church. The Pastor asked and I did it. However, later It made me question this church, and learn. It didn’t take me long to realize that it was just ME AND JESUS. After the first incident, I felt like God had just taken me away from the church and set me aside for a reason/purpose. I stopped attending church. it’s just been me and Jesus. You bless me with your Word.
I started going to school after God poured out of His Spirit upon me. I knew it was of God, and I began to thirst for knowledge and truth. I was led by the Spirit to study the Word for myself. As I began taking classes, I was very pleased because I was receiving knowledge, wisdom and understanding. I sowed a seed into the Word of God and I received prosperity as well (not financial either), just more truth. After awhile in school, God began to lead me toward more spiritual things and teachings. So much, that I could see that the school wasn’t even interested in teaching the truth. They were just about building up their school. They really expected us to believe and be tested on what books written by man said. They don’t care about what they teach, they threw together a curriculum. I loved my classes in the beginning about the Bible, and I stuck with Biblical courses until I had no other choices to start studying the other things theology wanted to teach. I stick to the Word and I think this is the point where God began leading me toward spiritual truths.
I began to feel so alone sometimes. I know I have Jesus. I love the lord from the depths of my heart and with all of my beings, yet surrounded by people that don’t just don’t understand. My family and children has even proven to me that there is no better love than the love of God. He is the only One and I try very hard to keep my focus on Him. I have a couple of friends that are fresh and new in the ministry of the church, and I’ve established some relationship with them, and wanted to start something with them, like maybe “Sisters helping Sisters” but I also realize too they don’t quite really understand or know the truth. They are still chasing men as their God, as you would say; so lately it’s just me and Jesus.
I reached out to you because I just wanted be a part of something real, and I have to admit I felt rejected. It’s okay. That’s only because rejection has always been a part of my past. I know God has plans for me and my life, and you really don’t need me. I was thinking of you on yesterday and somehow got along the thought that you were extremely judgemental of religious people, but I woke up late tonight and your writing was right in front of me. As I began to read it, tears just began to run down my face. You speak so much of the TRUTH, and you speak it boldly. I’m sure you touch so many hearts with your wisdom, as you have touched mine.
I thank God that He started leading me into all truths. I’ve not impressed with the religious people. I’m going to keep doing what I can to love and inspire people and keep myself inspired. I’m actually facing a lot in my personal life, with my family, etc., but I realize that when I keep my focus on Jesus, and keep following Him, He keeps me at peace. I just really wanted you to know tonight that I appreciate reading that article and I was replying on the place and lost the whole page and what I had written, and couldn’t find it so I came to your website. I don’t know what else to say, except be blessed. I’m trusting in God.
