Did you know that the biggest obstacle for Christianity is other Christians? Incredibly, though they have read the old Testament, and they know that the problem for the Jews was that they loved the law more then they loved the Spirit! They loved the religiosity of it, they loved the fanfare, and they loved the procedures. But they replaced God with their religiosity? And then 2,000 years later, many Christians have followed suit, and they worship a new law? They set up restrictions, and rules so rigid, that who would want to join that? They quench the spirit with their rigidity, and they have become a stumbling block for many!
The Bible is a living breathing document, on that we can all agree, but what is it that gives the Bible life if not the spirit? If Jesus walked the earth today, where do you think you'd find him? When he was here the first time, he hung out with some pretty unsavory characters! Now where would you find such as these today? In a bar for one! But Jesus in a bar? Oh no you say!
