Jeremy I agree its not about what we can do but all about what Jesus has done for us it is all about his grace not following mans laws or trying to please the pastor or the church.Be respectful for those
in authority and show them Gods love work hard as for the Lord as you serve them and pray for them but do nt try and please them.We no longer follow the ways of the world we live to please the Lord and worship him not man because that is idolatory.Thats why
religion does nt work we can do nothing to add to Gods grace.Grace is also not a licence to sin as some christians
believe and God is not fooled if we do not repent and turn from our sin he does nt hear our prayers if the intents of our heart are wrong.God listens to the humble and the repentent sinner or saint.The journey
in following Christ is about how much do we want to follow Jesus to discover the abundant life and richs
in Christ we must fully give him all our hearts and serve him wholehearted
out of thankfulness for his grace and mercy towards us.brentnz

in the bible?
