People of religion believe with their eyes, but the children of God believe with their ears.
People of religion believe in the things they see with their eyes, such as temples, shrines, cathedrals, and by the appearance of men in priestly garments; but the children of God believe by faith.
People of religion believe in the smoke of stovepipes, but the children of God believe by faith.
"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." (Hebrews 11: 1)
"Be still, and know that I am God." (Psalm 46: 10)
"And God said, 'Let there be light', and there was light." (Gen. 1: 3)
"And God said, 'Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the foul of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing and creepeth upon the earth' ." (Genesis 1: 26)
Therefore God created man to have dominion "over all the earth", but men of the earth invented religion to have dominion over people.
People of religion believe in religion, but the children of God believe in God.
"So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." (Romans 10: 17)
Hear ye! Hear ye! the Word of the Lord!
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
"He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. He came unto his own, and his own received him not. But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name: which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, but of God.
"And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth." (John 1: 1-4; 10-14)
Therefore come out of religion, for Christ is not there: He is risen!
"Why seek ye the living among the dead?" (Luke 24: 5)
