All of the religions of man are dictatorships, and all of the members of man's religions are subjects or slaves of religion.
In man's religious dictatorships, the head of each religion is a dictator, who rules with an iron fist; and all of the ministers and priests of the dictator enforce the desire of the dictator.
Religious dictatorships are systems of law, and the people are given a list of the laws, rules, and regulations that govern the religion, and they are expected to obey the laws, rules, and regulations, as well as to obey the procedure of rites and rituals---to the letter of the law. Disobedience to the law is unlawful, and the unlawful must and will be punished. People can be exiled for punishment, but they can also be excommunicated or even executed.
In religious dictatorships, people are not to think; therefore, the people are not free thinkers: they cannot and must not think for themselves. Instead, they must think in accordance to the mind of the dictator.
Moreover, members of religious dictatorships have no voice and no vote in policy because the dictator dictates policy; consequently, any change that arises will come from the top---or the front office---and not from the ministers or priests, and certainly not from the membership.
Even outside of the place of worship, the lives of members are also dictated. The people are told how to live their lives outside of the house of worship, how to conduct their behavior, how to teach their children to be like them, the books they can and cannot read, and how much to give in their offerings that will be pleasing to their religious law. Some religions also govern the movies and television shows their people can watch, the food and beverages they are allowed to consume, and the clothes they are permitted to wear.
Thus, the lives of religious people are dictated within their houses of worship, but also their lives are dictated in their own homes.
At birth, God gives us free will: the freedom to choose, the freedom to make decisions; the freedom to do that which is right, but also the freedom to do that which is evil; the freedom to believe in God, but also the freedom to believe in religion, as well as to believe in a religious dictator.
Religious dictators steal the free will of people in order to control the minds of people not to believe in Almighty God, which also includes no more free thinking.
If you, on the other hand, are a member of a religious dictatorship, you have surrendered your free will, given to you by Almighty God, in order to become obedient to your religion and to your religious dictator. You have chosen to place your faith in a dictator, and not to have your faith in God. You have chosen not to be a free thinker, not to think for yourself, but to only think in the policy of your dictator. You are now his prisoner, held captive, and not free. You are now a slave. This is the choice you have made with your free will.
Jesus said, And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. (John 8: 32)
To know Christ, we must become free thinkers, and, therefore, we must exercise the free will that God gives us to believe in the Lord. In so doing, we become free from the dictatorships of man's religions, we are no longer subjects and slaves, and we become friends God!
Jesus gave His life for our freedom, which the Lord freely gave with His free will.
