Liz: Re.: Cathedrals and art.

Ever been to the castles of Europe? The Great Wall of China? The Taj Mahal? The Biltmore Mansion?

Ever seen a landscape painting? A portrait? A depiction of a sailing ship? A Rodin Sculpture?

RELIGION: is the problem
BUT Christ came to save people from Religion.
Religion is law
Christ is grace
Religion is bondage
Christ is freedom
Religion is burdensome
Christ carried our load
Religion is decieving
Christ is truth & Truth sets us free from religion.

I love Jesus Christ, son of God with all my mind, soul & body because of the sacrifice he made for me & example he set for us to love & walk in Faith towards God. He sent the comforter, the Holy spirit to fill us with meaning & understanding & vision.

Religion is MAN'S way
Salvation thru Christ is GOD'S way

It is a narrow path & few shall find it & walk it. Joy fills the hearts of those who do.

God Bless you who earnestly seek God, for you SHALL find Him.

[Old Man from Scene 24]
