The Top 10 Most Restrictive, False and Dangerous Religious Beliefs
8th March 2016
Contributing Writer for Wake Up World
Religion has caused a lot of unnecessary pain to mankind, despite whatever truth and good intentions their followers may hold. Restrictive, false and dangerous religious beliefs abound throughout the world, and dominate the mainstream teachings of organized religion.
Some of these dangerous religious beliefs fool you into thinking you can out-source yourmorality, ethics or spirituality to some external organization. Others prevent you from taking full responsibility for yourself and your actions, thus hindering you from stepping fully into your power. Others goad you into a false sense of security where there is none. All of them limit you and the deeper realization of Who You Are, and all of them stem from the single fundamental delusion of separateness, i.e. that we are discrete and separate beings, that some people are better than others and that there is somewhere better you need to get to. It is an idea based on separateness leads to judgment and exclusion, and can never be as true and powerful as one based on connectedness.
You may think that beliefs are harmless. They can be, but they can also have serious ramifications. Remember Voltaire’s quote: “those who can make you believe absurdities can make you commit atrocities.” If you can convince people to follow you or your group, and that they will get rewarded in some way by doing this (e.g. get to Heaven, get fame, money, sex, knowledge or power, receive safety and security, etc.), you are well on your way to getting them to commit acts of unconsciousness.
Next comes tests of loyalty: will they lie for you? Will they cover up for you? Will they cheat for you? Will they die or kill for you? Beliefs can have horrible consequences. If you can’t tell truth from lies, you pave the way for corrupt people to seize power and manipulate you with deceptive propaganda. How many people have murdered in the name of God, or committed heinous crimes in the name of religion, all stemming from their dangerous religious beliefs?

Whistler Blowers, Insiders
You did a remarkable job of explaining the fallacy of man based religion, but then offer no hope of escaping man in the process. Every man has his own religion; the affects of which lead to death.
Secondly the only way out of this mess and the contracts men bind themselves too with religious doctrines and demons is the death, burial and resurrection of Jesus (Yeshua). His death gave us away to break free of the many lies and bondages imposed upon us by the fall. His resurrection then allows us to become more like Him and finally understand the true meaning of abundant and eternal life.
You speak without knowledge or experience regarding this one point.
http://www.amazon.com/Shadow-Spiritual-ebook/dp/B0085Y5P5S/ref=sr_1_6?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1362530135&sr=1-6&keywords=the+shadow+of+the+spiritual
so gordon you are a minister. I should have recognized that “speak” and ‘tone”.
When you talk of lies and bondage are you pointing to the Holy Law of God or the Sabbath?
Gordon you missed one of my comments and I was hoping to run into you one more time.
You accused me of not understanding the New Covenant, you said I must learn to trust in it.
Gordon please take the time are read this comment and let me know how badly I am misunderstanding the covenant of my Father and His Son.
“Trust in the New Covenant”?
Gordon a covenant is a contract, I have spent my life (52 years) in real estate, construction and land development and that means I have been a party to and drawn thousands of contracts some in the multiple millions.
I understand contracts and the vast vast majority of those attempting speak about the “New Covenant” have no understanding of contract Law.
American contract law was copied from the old covenant law of God.
What is called the OLD Covenant can be found in Leviticus 26: 1 – 39.
Verses 1, 2 and 3 is the “consideration” due from the children of Israel. Under this contract this is what Israel had agreed to do, this is their contractual obligation: Obey God.
Verses 4 – 13 are the promises of God, these are contractual obligations of God IF the Children obey. God has agreed to provide physical blessing IF the children obey.
Verses 14 – 39 are the contractual remedies God has to bring the children back into contract compliance when they stray from their contractual obligations. These remedies were agreed to by the children.
Gordon this is IT! This is the Old Covenant.
What you did not find was the sacrificial law.
What you did not find was a promise of righteousness for obedience to law
What you did not find was forgiveness of sin
What you did not find was the offer of eternal life
What you did not find was the offer of the Holy Spirit given to man.
The old contract is a physical contract for a physical people with physical law and physical promises.
Gordon the “only” change to the old contract was to the contractual obligations of God, to the promises of God. Nothing else was changed.
The promises of God have now become Spiritual:
We can now be forgiven of our sins by the blood of Jesus Christ
We can now be given the Father’s Spirit which begins the change of our nature (conversion) over to the Divine nature of the Father.
And IF we endure until “the” or our end — eternal life.
The “consideration” due from those called out of this world remains! We must obey the Lord our God.
The new contract is now a spiritual contract for a spiritual people with a spiritual law and spiritual promises.
Gordon I am not looking for answers I have been shown the TRUTH, thankfully I was never in any of the 4000 flavors of so called Christianity.
My concept of false “religion”, so called christianity, came from the movies and the mouths of others.
Gordon you like all the rest have this concept you have been freed from the Law of God, from “the law of sin and death” and you have – but – what you have been freed from is the “penalty of death”.
The sacrifice of Christ did not set you free from the law it set you free from the penalty of death you have earned by your sins. Christ died so you would not have to die for your own sins.
All of mankind is “under” the condemnation of the Law and that condemnation is the sentence of death.
The Law is Holy Just and Good – we are evil.
being under the obligation to obey the Law is not the condemnation, the condemnation comes when we break the Law.
Gordon the law only reveals the sin, only God can condemn and put the sinner to death. The law is the light that reveal the sin!
gordon only shed blood can give us redemption, ending the law does not redeem. the blood of bulls and goats only pointed to the coming sacrifice of our Passover.
Gordon I realize how deceived this satanic world is, some day your eyes will be opened and you too will love the Lord our God and HIS DIVINE HOLY LAW.
We ran out of “REPLY buttons” in our last conversation ( maybe it had to do with over 60 replies).
I really think I covered most everything that needed to be said in our last dialog. Please go back and recount what I said. But I will add;
I love the concept of a contract. I understand that an opening line sets the point with sub-points following. I actually read scripture looking for that very format. It does wonders for moving out of the way all sorts of religious nonsense.
In respect to the Torah though it speaks of God’s laws, its flaw was in that it was delivered by angels. However with the introduction of the law as it is expressed in New Covenant it was then delivered through God Himself in the person of the Holy Spirit.
So what is the difference? The law as it was delivered by angels is destined to bring condemnation and judgment at every turn. However the New covenant contract still includes the Torah but it was established in the heart of the believer by the presence of the indwelling Holy Spirit. Without God manifesting in the person of the Holy Spirit and offering you His take on the Torah and its place in the heart, you create a religion that also tends to condemn as in the first covenant.
If you really do follow a pattern related to contract law then find reason to look at the contract regarding the role the God’s Spirit in the New Covenant contract. It is obvious
you are a valuable saint in the making, but you will have to find reason to let the Holy Spirit carry you further in the knowledge of His Son. With such a embrace you are invited to no longer have to call Him your Master but rather you will be known as a friend of God.
gordon
you will be blinded until the 2nd resurrection. Rev 20: 1 -6
Do you not understand the Passover in Egypt came before the Law was given to Moses on the mountain —- that Law that defines what sin is — prexisted the Covenant.
What do you suppose Abraham kept?? Abraham kept the Torah !
Genesis 26
5 Because that Abraham obeyed my voice, and kept my charge, my commandments, my statutes, and — my laws.
Gordon — that word LAW is torah — feel free to look it up
Strong’s Concordance
torah: direction, instruction, law
Original Word: תּוֹרָה
Part of Speech: Noun Feminine
Transliteration: torah
Phonetic Spelling: (to-raw’)
Short Definition: law
Please do not placate me — I feel sorry for you! you are decieved and you are helping others to become as decieved as you are.
Gordon you worship the Son and the Son taught us to Worship the Father and HIM ONLY. Jesus Christ is my Master and my elder brother, He gave His life for me — a sinner.
Do not pray to your god for me, I want nothing you have.
Im Adens Law of All Troothys (translated out of Hebrew)
EVERYTHING YESHOOBYDOOBYDOOBYISTS POST AND BELIEVE IS CRAP.
How is it that you deny God access to you in His fullness. Did not the Father give you the Holy Spirit as well ? The trinity of God preceded religious interpretation.
John 14:26
But the Advocate, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and will remind you of everything I have said to you.
…gordon…..any reference to the “spiritual” rebirth, is discounted by seeker. His reference point is that nobody has done enough yet, to approach the throne of God. That we all need to insult the Lord’s Savior, with O.T. “ordinances”, and traditions, IS his message. He will probably carry this false doctrine to the end…he’s really hard headed.
If you own your religion then you have to defend it at all costs. The very same attitude crucified our Lord and now persecutes His people.
The answer of course is to give up our religion for the sake of participating in Christ.
TruthSeeker, your name implies that you are still looking. Is that true or have you decided that you already know all about God?
I won’t pray for you as you ask, but realize that your own prayers are being answered in the hearing of our message.
The Spirit of God waits for your reply.
Gordon – maxxy
First; I am not a novice I have been following Jesus Christ as HE follows our Father for 46 years.
Second; I turn and run from anything catholic like the satanic doctrine of a trinity. Have you noticed Paul never includes the spirit when he sends greeting to one of the churches?
The trinity, admitted to by Rome , was not invented until the 4th century, I am sure like 100% of their doctrines they borrowed it from the pagans.
And most so called Christian churches like yours are nothing but catholic lite.
You keep Sunday, Easter, Xmas etc all selected, approved and endorsed by Rome and its popes.
Next I am a begotten son of God the Father i.e. I am a spiritual fetus as I have the impregnation of the Holy Spirit (not ghost) which is what I have come to see is the spirit DNA of the Father. I am waiting to be born again in the immortal spirit image of my Father at the First Resurrection. In Phil 3: 21 Paul tells us we are to have the same body as our elder brother: is Jesus Christ GOD?
God, Elohiym, is a Family and we are told to use the term Father for an incredible reason, God is bring to birth sons after His own KIND.
Most will call that statement blasphemy which is what the Pharisees told Christ He was doing.
Gordon – how can I be following my own “religion” if I follow the example Jesus Christ set for His disciples to follow? that WAY of life the Father calls PERFECT?
What day did Christ keep – the 7th Day Sabbath
What Holy Days did Christ keep – all 7 of the Holy Feasts of God.
What meat did Christ eat – clean meat, no unclean.
What did Christ preach from – the Law, the prophets and the Psalms.
What did Christ use to defeat Satan after His 40 day and night fast – the Torah.
What did Christ use to confound the Pharisees – the Torah
I can go on and on –
but, I know soon the Saints of God will be again slaughtered, by those claiming to be Christians,..for following Jesus Christ–
do you not remember the words of our savior – they will kill you thinking they do God a service?
Gordon, “if they speak not according to the Law there is no light in them?”
Is that Old Testament statement a lie??
Gordon I know you are familiar with this statement of Christ found in Matthew 24.
”For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.”
Read this statement this way – many will come in My name preaching that I am the Christ and shall deceive MANY!
Gordon with the Name of Christ the Christian churches have and will deceive the many preaching Christ IS OUR SAVIOR and with that message will deceive MANY>
Gordon I follow that very narrow way that few find, not of myself lest I could brag but I was called kicking and screaming until I was shown I was a despicable sinner – I finality came to understand that fact for which I thank my Father daily.
By the way do not even bother to bring up that baptism of the spirit –speaking in tongues thing — Jesus Christ did not do so – His apostles did not do so and neither will I. It is a deception of Satan.
Gordon be concerned for your own self — do not be concerned about me, My Father and Jesus Christ are blessing me daily with deeper and broader understand. I seek – I find and I knock for more and it is opened to me.
I could write for a week telling of the blessings my Father has pour upon me over the last 46 years – none of which I earned or deserved –
Your insights regarding the impact of the Catholic Church are accurate and I follow none of it; not sunday, not easter, not xmas and not a Christian religion. However it is Jesus Yeshua that makes me Christian not some religious substitute.
Furthermore I don’t ascribe to the doctrine nor the spirit of a catholic trinity, nor do I ascribe to a Baptist, Presbyterian, assemblies of God, or messianic trinity. You name the religion and I don’t ascribe to it.
What I do ascribe to is before there was a questionable religion there was Yahweh God and He comes to us as complete with a complete plan of salvation and sonship. That means we accept Him for who He is and He accepts us when we call on His Name.
If you read the New Covenant contract from this vantage point you will come to understand that God displays Himself as one in three persons. I can’t change that nor can I argue with you on the subject since your years of religious right-ness have already sentenced me to hell. But such presuppositions confirm what I have already said in my writing, an Old Testament take on the Torah creates an environment of condemnation.
Furthermore you are pushing the perfection of sonship out into the future, but it currently exists in Jesus (Yeshua) and manifests in our spiritual oneness with the God head.
It is obvious after 46 years you have yet to understand the New Covenant and its ability to renew your steps. Read it like a contract and you will benefit immensely. Finally those that worship God must worship Him in Spirit and in Truth. The spirit that leads mankind in their many religious exploits is not of God. This remains true for any man centered agenda. So it is fitting that Jesus (Yeshua) would provide us away out of any spiritual deception within that very same New Covenant contract.
Are you courageous enough to test yourself to see if you are free of a wrong spirit?

I am saying goodbye at this point.
…Seeker…tell Gordon about your views on the Holy Trinity. Concisely…PLEASE. (if that’s possible)
…Richard…when a person decides to eschew his traditional “religious” beliefs and embrace Jesus Christ as the end all and be all, of human spirituality…then he can, in the name of Christ, assume the grace of God…The Holy Spirit.
…This happens apart from any and all identification with religious tradition….and that is the part, that keeps most Catholics and other ‘religious’ sects, from getting to the point of actual spiritual discernment.
…Just can’t let go of the traditions of men. Traditions of men, make void the word of God….
…When this baptism of the Holy spirit occurs in person’s soul, he is adopted, personally, into the ‘universal’ faith…spiritual Christianity.
maxxy
who ever is feeding you this line of satanic garbage — run the other direction from them.
…I know I’m right…you ‘think’ you are.
What do you disagree with in her statement?
every other word
maxxy
GRACE — that is not the magic word, it is not a new doctrine, it is not get out of jail free card!
Grace did not cast out or replace the Holy Law of God.
Grace also means kindness — while ALL were yet sinners God the Father sent HIS SON to die for SINNERS.
That is the grace and kindness of our Father — undeserved pardon! The Father was willing to let His Son be murdered by sinful evil morons so the Father could be again be in a relationship with those He calls out of this world to HIMSELF.
read how Paul describes this event.
Romans 5
6 For when we were yet without strength (weak in the flesh), in due time Christ died for the ungodly.
Christ died for the SINNERS! A person that is ungodly is a law breaker a person that lives in iniquity.
7 For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure for a good man some would even dare to die.
8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that,—- while we were yet sinners, —- Christ died for us.
This is the kindness or grace of GOD!
9 Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
We are justified BY HIS BLOOD exactly as the Torah prescribes.
Removing the Law justifies no one! maxxy explain by scriptures how the law if it were abolished can justify any one?
10 For if, — when we “were” enemies,— we were reconciled to God by the death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved by his life.
Our sins are forgiven by His death and by His resurrection we shall also be given life eternal.
If Christ was not resurrected and given immortal spirit life by His Father — we have no hope — so states Paul.
While we were ALL enemies (sinners and haters of the Law) — by the death of Jesus Christ — we are reconciled ( our relationship with our Father is restored) BY HIS DEATH — not by the abolishing of the HOLY Law!
11And not only [so], but we also joy in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom we have now received the atonement.
Maxxy I doubt your mind can see this now but you will later.
Whatever seeker writes, is an earthly interpretation of spirituality. He does not speak from knowledge, and wisdom, but, from an intellectual understanding of the word…And does so copiously.
Compare his Words with the teachings of Jesus, and you will see, Christ’s liberation of our souls has not reached his consciousness. This is an example of the “stupor” that God himself has put on some. He put the stupor on them to prevent them from comprehending, to prevent them from, deceiving the little ones…
He is not aware of any of the Holy Spirit’s liberation, and can’t/won’t accept instruction..
…He is very sure that he has the WHOLE truth…
…Any one with a true, scriptural “understanding” of the times, can recognize his error.
…He will write at least a thousand words to try to refute what i just wrote…watch.
maxxy
1000 words to refute what?? your opinion of me?? with your opinion and $5.00 I can get a cup of coffee.
Maxxy all you have ever said is you do not understand what I say and thus you do not agree — that is fine!
