RE: Mythology & Religion - a few thoughts
It's not a hard sell to say that this day and age the world has a bad taste in it's mouth often because of self-righteous false religion that has obscured biblical truth.
Matthew 7:14-21 KJVS
Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. [15] Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. [16] Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? [17] Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. [18] A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. [19] Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. [20] Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. [21] Not every one 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.
What is doing the will of the Father?
John 6:39-40 KJVS
And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day. [40] And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.
It's not a moral checklist like false religion would have you believe. The truth is the gospel, Christ alone and His death alone being our soul plea before the faith Father. It's not about performance. If it were, we would be toast.
He who has ears to hear, let him hear.

All I hear is a slave handbook from the middle east. Okay, there is historical value to the Bible and some nice messages, but..... I'm European, my family has been European for 100,000 years now some desert religion is going to come and tell me about false prophets. 😂😂😂 My traditions and my ancestors are my pride. I suggest you do a little research and find out how your own family was converted into Christianity. Then look at what Islam is doing today. And because it's illegal for me to do so in Germany I won't mention the third Abrahamic religion.
My family is not Christian. Unfortunately, God has not opened their eyes yet well spare one brother of mine.
Islam is an oppressive works righteousness religion much like run-of-the-mill evangelicalism. The Jewish faith is also based on works. That's the difference between false religion and gospel truth.
"For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil." Genesis 3:5 KJV
They all believe that same lie from the serpent. Our flesh is incorrigible evil. That is why it required death for the debt to be paid. We cannot pay that debt, my friend.
Not now. Not ever.
