I used to be a part of that "system" until I tried to commit suicide, with a 12 gauge loaded with double ought.
Finally I go home, to recover, thinking God must hate me now, and all of a sudden God speaks.
This changed my life. He spoke and my views on true Christianity, compared to what exists in the world today were transformed forever.
This allowed me to somehow (not by effort by myself, in fact it had nothing to do with me, it just came about by Him speaking to me) live the life of Hebrews CH 4, to "REST" in Him...
This is what I believe is the end game, to rest. Jesus did the work, what is the result? Better yet, have you ever seen a newborn, resting in it's mothers arms? That baby trusts her so much, their relationship so bonded, that all that baby has to do is rest in the works of the mother. As Hebrews says God rested from His works, and we must also "CEASE" from our own works.
I do not strife, to be XY or Z... I don't bemoan that I need to be more patient, or spiritual, this is all carnal religious flesh. We must see from God's view, what He desires. Jesus says it is to trust/believe 0n Him.
I am just sharing, from my experiences with God, not judging anyone. Why am I not judging? Because before GOD DID THIS FOR ME, I was living a life of sin, failure, not even understanding the scriptures or His role or my own, in this relationship, He granted me. I failed for 40+ years, every single day, I sinned. Caught in it's trap.
BUT NOW, my understanding has changed totally, but not by my own hand, this was gifted to me. I understand the garden / fall was not a mistake, God killed Jesus, not the romans or Jewish religious leadership. I understand that Sin is in the flesh, this body we live in, it can NEVER be improved, we are to live in Spirit (recon that to be a fact, more real than the flesh).
This was all God's plan, there have been no failures or plan B. How do we know this? Because in the beginning, God wrote a book. In that book were names, those would be the ones that Jesus saved, that God would draw, that Jesus said He would never lose, and since this book was written in the very beginning, that reveals that God already had this all planned out in His mind. Satan would be in the garden with Jesus, Adam would sin, Jesus would come, then die and rise from the dead.
