Christ is the final authority, many choose to submit to Him and not men and His denominations. There is one truth, it is in Christ, not mens doctrines or rules.

Christ came to establish the church, not religion. Seems some do not understand what the young man in the video is trying to teach,...the Pharisees did not understand Jesus either...
It seems to me that the young man is one of the people who didn't understand what he was trying teach. It may be popular to preach an anti-religious message within Protestant circles, but it was never considered by Christians before the Reformation. Christ rebuked the Pharisees because they lacked the spirit of the law or love, not because they were religious. They were preaching the wrong religion - it was empty. Religion is just language we use to relate to God.
you just proved his point, religion causes division and wars, your use of Protestants and Reformation, blah, blah, blah. religious names, is about religion that divides.
Jesus rebuked the Pharisees for many reasons, one was they were more concerned about Jewish tradition (religion) than truth, and because of that were blinded to the fact God was right in front of their faces.
When Church's argue about being Catholic, Protestant or Reformed, that is religion, that is not of God, but man. Man = Religion
It takes no religion for me to have a conversation with God, or to praise Him, I just do it anywhere any time. God can hear me no matter where I am,
Mat_18:3 And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted, and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
And so as a child to Him I shall Go. Religion puts men into bondage, religion causes division.
1Co 1:12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ.
1Co 1:13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?
There is one God, one Jesus ( word) one Holy Spirit, one church built on revelation. Its men that causes division, with all His doctrines and churches.

"This is just a recycled age old heresy of "spiritual but not religious."
-------------------------------
so depending on Christ alone for my salvation is heresy...be very careful friend with the words you so easily say, for the one sin that will not be forgiven is to balsaming the Holy Spirit.
Jesus=Holy Spirit
I do not need your religious eucherius, (communion), your religious baptism, all I need is Jesus,....that is not new age spiritualism, this is what Christ Himself said on the Cross...."IT IS FINISHED"!!!!!!!
When I practice the Lords Supper, and submit to baptism, is not for receiving or keeping my salvation, it is to honor my Lord, and Savior. As apostle Paul proclaimed, anything added to Christ grace freely given....is nothing but a pile of DUNG
I will not judge your salvation, but I will judge your false teachings.
