Abused by Religion, Healed by the Church

Nothing has caused more destruction, horror, war, death, and brutality than religion. Religious barbarianism has devastated the planet by the conflict of men who are adamant about reproducing God in their own image and demand their idea of God is the only correct one. Sadly, this brutality is not only seen between rival religious groups but also within the same faith by those beasts who have no regard for God or His glory, only their own! Their own idea of glory justifies the slaughter of brothers by brothers and sisters by sisters, all in the name of God. This abuse has run rampant in the house of God, but be sure it is not the Spirit of our Lord! Totalitarian rulers with convictions boldly serve as God's holy emissaries, demolishing multitudes and seeking to rob them of the liberty that abounds through Christ! These totalitarian rulers have wielded two of the most powerful weapons known to man: the Bible and God, in an effort to imprison men in their fear so they might manipulate men for their advantage! The result: multitudes have left the church and are not coming back. "There is no cause for a man seeking Christ to be that wrecked. No justification for it whatsoever."
