I don't belong to any kind of organized religion. I believe in Jesus Christ my religion is the death the burial and the resurrection of Christ.
I believe, I felt him in my life I have a one-on-one relationship with him I don't need anybody else to tell me how to talk to God or what this verse mean.
I believe when you read the Bible, you get the message God wants you to have, only you,
I may read it and get a completely different meaning not that my meaning would be wrong but I believe that God gives you his message for each and every person that reads his Bible.
the way he wants you to get the message, it's happened too many times in my life.
I really think people will be a bit surprised when they figure that out.
I don't need any pastor, Minister, priest to tell me what to believe.
Jesus Christ is the only one that can forgive me, so why would I go to them to explain to me how to live.
go straight to the source

My Mama's entire family are witnesses.
Talk about rules!!
