SPIRITUALITY & RELIGION




From the beginning of creation, religion has been the major problem, the cause of war and crisis, the confusion and misconception. It is the root cause of terrorism.


Religion is institutionalized with human made doctrine and agenda of its own. Religion exploits and blackmail, it preaches in-equality. It promotes Doctrines that are institutionalized. Religion is a cultural system of behaviors and practices, the belief in and worship of a super human controlling power, especially a personal God or gods. Religion is totally different from spirituality.

Spirituality is having personal contact with God. Spirituality makes you have a personal relationship with the divine. It renews your spirit on daily basis and empowers you. Spirituality is a personal conviction. It is a broad concept with room for many perspectives. In general, it includes a sense of connection to something bigger than us, and it typically involves a search for meaning in life. As such, it is a universal human experience that touches us all. Spirituality guides you in taking charge of your health, well being and Rights. The holy books have a lot of human rights principle embedded in it. 

Most religious institutes practice hypocrisy, they judge you and tell you what is right and not, yet they do the worse behind closed does. They preach and still have sexual intercourse with their followers. They play with our minds, manipulate us in the name of religion, they kill innocent souls in the name of religion. They milk their followers in the name of sowing seed. they use the so called seed to build their own empire, mansion and career. They govern religious institute as though it was an investment/business institute, making their relatives and children handle leadership roles. They ask followers to give seed and donation to establish schools the followers cannot afford, they buy private jets and move from air condition to air conditioner. They honor invitation of corrupt leaders, pray for them and collect illegal seed. Yet some people scrub their knee in worship and adoration.

Denomination is the order of the day as religious institute are now business ventures. Again ignorant followers idolize and immortalize these men of God.

Incidentally I came across a handbill while I was compiling this article, and behind it was testimonies; sadly these are some of the content. See below;



TESTIMONIES
 My encounter with Anointing of the Arch Bishop,  Cancer disappeared. 
 My encounter with Anointing of the Arch Bishop. 12 years fibroid vanished.

Please let’s use our inner mind to analyze the above content on testimonies. Is it Arch Bishop they give glory to or God almighty? You cannot share in the glory of God.

Until some people realize that it’s by faith and grace that they are healed and prosperous, they will remain being slaves and worshipers of prophets and so called men of God instead of being followers and worshipers of the one who created them.



Don’t allow any religion make you feel vulnerable or not qualified because that is what they do in religious institute. They want to make you feel you are less qualified for God’s blessings; they want to make you feel inferior because of their own superiority complex.

If you are Spirit filled, you will drop a lot of things (bad/wrong habits) by yourself. Don’t allow anyone to tell you to be born again or worship with their religious institute before you can make it in life. Don’t allow anyone brain wash you of deliverance when you can have a personal relationship with your creator. Become a spiritual being and not religious born again. Real spirituality helps you govern your body. Misunderstanding of the holy book is because we don’t study the words, we only listen to what religion says.



Establish a personal relationship with God and not with a religious institute. How we relate with God and humanity is what matters. Don’t allow religious institutes dictate to you what and how to live your life. They can only advice, teach and guide. Not dictate or control. 
No doubt, there are genuine men of God, but very few.



Be Spirit filled, We are here as human, but our spirit lives forever and you can only make your spirit stronger by knowledge and taking care of your body because your body is the temple of God. Spirituality makes one live a good life as models and activist.



Principles of godliness start with equality!

Spirituality is about loyalty and justice!
