The happy church people, but inside they are whited sepulchers.
-3And again Maria Divine Mercy says in her message of Jesus of October 12th, 2013:
How I weep with bitter sorrow for the souls of the arrogant, the ignorant and those
with hardened hearts. They are so stuffed with pride, that they will never see Me
because they cant. It is not possible for a person to see Me or to be filled with my
True Word, if they are stricken with the sin of pride. Those of you, on the other hand,
who know Me, but who accept Me on your own terms you too distance yourselves
from Me. Why do you say you know Me and then twist what I told you about
following Me? How can you call yourself a Christian and be prepared to accept false
theology and lies, which you have twisted to suit your own lifestyles? Who are you if
you do not follow Me and accept the full Truth of my Teachings? You are a traitor.
You betray Me. When you betray Me once, you will be tempted to do it again and
again, until finally, you will no longer be a Christian in my eyes.
The Royal Priesthood of God, spoken of in 1 Peter 2, where the Holy Spirit is the real
power, the real teacher, the real deliverer, the real dispenser of truth, etc., is not to be
found in the normal way of doing of the institutional churches. The true companionship
with God is only for a very few, at least in our present world. Man-inspired religions
continue to produce a vast majority of whited sepulchers. Gods message from the
Book of Revelation, chapter 3, to the churches of Sardis and Laodicea, is aimed at all
systems of religion that produce fruits that qualify as external devotion without the
empowerment of the heart. It says: I know your deeds; you have a reputation of being
alive, but you are dead. To the Laodicean church the judgement reads that they are
wretched, pitiful, poor, blind and naked. In both cases, the shepherds and their sheep
are asked to repent and seek Gods way of salvation and his righteousness, not theirs.
Religion teaches Christ in theory, but not one of daily fellowship with Him. Shepherds may know the theory of the Spirited life but are most often incapable to apply it
to themselves, much less teach it to others. Jesus said that they are blind guides: If a
blind man leads a blind, both will fall into a pit. (Mt. 15:14)
Allain de la Motte writes in his article Jesus v/s Religion, from 2005:
Lets face it, religion has become a multi-billion dollar system where
thousands of full-time workers earn a good living from it. As a result, it is more
important to produce happy and contented financial backers than to fulfill the less
popular need to faithfully and diligently teach the Truth of Scripture in its entirety.
Religion is thus neatly packaged and promoted to make the sheep feel an artificial
sense of security and wellbeing. In so doing, modern day pharisees make a farce of
the Message of the Cross.
Neat rules are established and passed down from generation to generation.
Boundaries are carefully laid out to give the sheep an artificial sense of security
within the confines of religion. In many instances, programs are designed to
produce a positive change in behavior while they neglect the fact that the heart of
Man is deceitful above all things and desperately wicked, who can know it
(Jer. 17:9), let alone produce (an in depth) positive change through self-will or
self-effort. As a result, sincere church-going members have a total misconception
of the mercy and grace of a loving God and the Christian life in general. Slowly
they become bound in legalism and (worn out) tradition, and as a result are
precluded from experiencing the wonderfully soothing presence of the indwelling
Holy Spirit and the peaceful joy which results from being one with the Father, and
Jesus Christ his Son.
