True Christianity vs. Pagan Christianity

7/14/2020

The difference between the One True God and every other pagan religion (including all the fake distorted manipulated variations of "Christianity”) is that God did not establish a kingdom here on earth that you can see with your eyes and tell someone ... 'look! there is the real religion'... no. God established his kingdom WITHIN the hearts of men. Jesus answered, My kingdom is not of this world. [John 18:36]

And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you. [Luke 17:20]

People have it all wrong when they embrace Christianity as a means to attain a "positive final resting place"… Jesus defines eternal life in John 17:3: And this is life eternal, that they might know thee the only true God, and Jesus Christ, whom thou hast sent. At the crux of true Christianity is a relationship. Knowledge of the only True God who is HOLY. and knowledge of Jesus Christ - aka- God with us who sacrificially saves his people. - Jesus is defined as "God with us and Savior" and Christ is the picture-perfect human role model of a life lived in selfless passion to radically love others by serving, uplifting and setting others free so they may prosper in their God ordained destiny. All who miss this understanding have a vain worthless religion that will profit them nothing in the end. This is why Jesus also said: Not everyone that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity. [Matt.7:21-23]

There is a True Faith and a True way of expressing a religious devoted life before God, but no one can teach YOU what that looks like. Just like our relationships with our children can look different because their needs wants and abilities differ. So is God, the Father of our Spirits, with us. God seeks those who worship Him from their own human spirit in their own genuine holy way of expression. No established individual religious institution can give that to everyone. [hence the outrageous divisions]. But the hour cometh, and now is, when the true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. [John 4:23-24]

We recommend you do not seek to understand God through religion, but question God directly on the logic of scripture. Not how people interpret it, but how you interpret the scriptures personally. God is not far from those who seek truth.

Wake Up &
BG2G!

This blog exists for people who still want God but have grown disillusioned with the American Church as it currently operates.
It examines the gap between institutional Christianity and the life of real discipleship—hypocrisy that destroys trust, form without power, performative community that leaves people lonely, and a Gospel that claims to set captives free yet leaves so many still in chains. Drawing from Scripture, personal lived experience, and the hard-won wisdom of recovery culture, the writing diagnoses these failures honestly and points toward a recoverable alternative: the recovery of the Acts Church through BG2G Home Groups. These gatherings adapt the structural strengths of 12-Step fellowship (honest sharing without performance, rotating servant leadership, anonymity, and financial independence) while placing the Bible as the sole authority and centering progressive freedom from bondage.
Posts range from raw personal testimony about trauma, addiction, and the soul-level cost of broken intimacy, to carefully reasoned essays on the loneliness epidemic, the human trade of lasting glory for temporary pleasure, sin as slavery rather than mere behavioral failure, and the rational roots of institutional distrust. The consistent call is not to abandon faith, but to wake up—to trade image for integrity, programs for presence, and empty religion for the kind of transformative fellowship the early Church actually practiced.
Most Christian content either softens hard truths or diagnoses problems without offering a workable path forward. This blog does both. It names the wounds accurately and keeps returning to a concrete model for something better. If you are tired of form without power, if you still believe the Acts Church is possible, or if you simply need writing that takes both Scripture and the human condition seriously, this is a place worth staying with.
