Re: What did Lord Jesus instruct His followers to do?

'What most indoctrinees of the church system have today instead is a form of religion that lacks the power of the Holy Spirit, so very similar to what the blind guide pharisees and their blind followers had. Now just as then, those who remain in blindness and in powerlessness would need to open their hearts and be immersed in the Holy Spirit before being set free from religion of man and able to see this truth for themselves, something that is available to all who genuinely hunger and thirst for it. Intimate personal relationship with the Living Lord Jesus, filled to overflowing with His Spirit is available to the true seeker, but just as was true 2000 years ago, it's so much easier to go along with the herd and to be a follower of the established religious system which remains as stiff necked and Spirit quenching as ever.'

So true, but this is starting to change. Some people are starting to realize that it is not the words on the pages of the Bible that are the gospel but rather Christ Himself who is the Gospel. The words are there so you can feast on The Word that is behind all the words. Anyone who knows Christ, knows His Gospel, and anyone who truly knows His Gospel, knows Christ. When we know the Truth, who is Christ, who is the Word, then we are free indeed and that is the reason Christ came to this Earth born into the body of Jesus, to set us free. That is the real miracle, greater than any miracle of healing, speaking in tongues, the power of Christ to free man from the bondage of sin.
