not in the warped fundamentalist steeped in spiritual blindness like you big bird
Religion is evil to a anarchist cos it demands obedience to hierarchical order
And you know only disobedience & rebellion
religion: a particular system of faith and worship.
Christ is the mediator of the new covenant
How can you have a covenant without it being a religion?
First of all, we follow and obey Jesus Christ. It does not follow that since we do not obey a hierarchy that we are anarchist. And neither does it follow that since we don't obey your leaders that we only know disobedience and rebellion.
While we agree that religion is a particular system of faith and worship, such faith and worship are based on a set of rules. Jesus and the Father are teaching us to live differently, not according to a set of rules but according to a set of principles, values, and morals, free to be convinced in our own minds and free to act accordingly. Jesus wants his disciples to do the right thing for it's own sake. Those who follow a set of rules or traditions have no interest in reason or the answer as to
why something is right or wrong.
We follow Jesus, not to satisfy a religious rule, but because following Jesus is the right thing to do. We obey him, not to satisfy a rule or a bishop, but because obeying Jesus is the right thing to do. Good for goodness sake, righteousness for righteousness sake, love for love's sake, truth for truth's sake, because all of these should be done whether or not a rule exists.
Consider what the Apostle Paul wrote in his letter to the Galatians. He calls this "walking by the spirit." He spoke about the fruits of the Spirit and in that context he says, "against such things there is no law." Understand? If you are keeping the rules of your religion, you are walking according to the flesh. But if you are experiencing the fruits of the Spirit, you are walking by the Spirit, which is outside and beyond your rules and traditions.
You are "little birdy", because like the little birds you eat the seeds that fall on the hard ground. You seek to take the word away so that it will not benefit those who hear it.
