IGNORANCE IS BLISS

   When people ignore the Word of the Lord, they are ignoring God; for it is impossible for people to know God without hearing and receiving the knowledge of the Lord.
   Without the knowledge of God, which is the Word of the Lord, God is a stranger to people:  they do not know Him because they do not know His Word.
   Therefore, too, God is a stranger to religion because religion is not about Almighty God; for religion is about the god of the religion.
   The Holy Bible is the Word of the Lord and the Word of the Lord is Christ; therefore, when people believe the Holy Bible they are believing the Word of the Lord, which means they are believing Christ. 
   And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.  (John 1: 14)
   The word "dwelt" in Hebrew is tabernacle:  the place where God dwells.  Jesus, therefore, is the tabernacle of God, the place where God dwells; which means that God is Christ, and that Christ is God, just as we are told in Isaiah 9:6---his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.  Which means that Christ is Messiah, who is Almighty God!
   Be not deceived:  do not confuse the knowledge of a god of religion with the knowledge of Almighty God; for the knowledge of the god of religion is the knowledge of the people who created the god.  There are many religions, and there are many gods---one for each religion; while many religions have multiple gods, created by the imaginations of people! 
   Perhaps the greatest work of deception that unholy men have done was when they converted the simple belief in Christ to a religion, which they named Christianity.  For Christ did not bring a religion with Him when He came to earth, and neither did He leave a religion behind after His ascension. 
  Moreover, the disciples and apostles of Christ never talked or wrote about a Christian religion; for all they did was talk and write about Christ and Christ alone!
   When people come to know Christ, they also come to know the difference between Christ and a religion. 
   Ignorance is bliss:  not knowing something is often more comfortable than knowing it.
   Religious Christians are comfortable in not knowing the truth about Christ.
