What was The first Christian “Religious War”?

Every person is in a “Religious War” for our soul. May we all be blessed to follow our Commander’s Orders!

~

Question 1: “Was The First Christian ‘Religious War’ fought by Jesus Christ?”

Answer: “That is clear in Mt 22:34-40!

‘When the Pharisees heard that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, they gathered together. One of them, a scholar of the law, tested Jesus by asking, ‘Teacher, which commandment in the law is the greatest?’

~

Question 2: “That’s an intelligent question! The answer would tell what Jesus thought was the most important thing He believed. How did Jesus answer?”

Answer: “‘Jesus said to him, ‘You shall love the Lord, your God, with all your heart, with all your soul, and with all your mind. This is the greatest and the first commandment.’

~

Question 3: “No one who meaningfully believed in God could argue with that! What else did Jesus say?”

Answer: “Jesus said something that no one on the other side of The Religious War wanted to hear! ‘The second is like it: You shall love your neighbor as yourself. The whole law and the prophets depend on these two commandments.’

~

Question 4: “Did That Word of Jesus begin every Religious War that followed?”

Answer: “With two sentences, Jesus Christ had divided all humanity into two groups who would oppose each other until the end of the world.”

~

Question 5: “What are those two Groups?”

Answer: “God’s People would strive to love God and their neighbors as much as they loved themselves. Worldly People would proudly love themselves more than they loved God and their neighbors.”

~

Question 5: “Which people on earth are closest to Jesus?”

Answer: “Those who Think Clearly enough to know that Jesus Christ Spoke One Church on Earth Into Being with His Holy Word!

‘And I tell you, you are Peter, and on this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. I give you the keys of The Kingdom of Heaven.’

Those closest to Jesus are in His Church.”

~

Question 6: “What about those who willfully choose to reject The Specific Church that Jesus Christ Spoke Into Being with His Church-Creating Word?”

Answer: “The ‘Religious War’ that Jesus began is fought in every human mind! May God bless all to love Him enough to focus earthly efforts on winning the only ‘keys to The Kingdom of Heaven’ that His Son left on earth.

‘Good soldiers’ follow Our Commander’s Orders. They are forever among: ‘You are My friends if you obey My commands.’
