Church of Christ: The Church is Not the Real Thing!

I. Introduction

Jesus Christ has said many times to deny the self and help others. How good are we at doing such a thing? At the individual level it may be easier however, at the level of a collective it is not. One such collective is the church. There in the business of selling faith to believers. 

They ask for your money and your silent obedience in return when you die you will go to heaven. However, if you do not obey them they assure you that you will burn! This simply is not the case they have already done the first sin but, they want you to think you sinned first by not listening to them. So what is this mysterious sin the committed?

The church committed self-righteousness! There model Jesus Christ told them to deny the self and help others. To deny the self you need to deny that self-righteousness don't you? By denying the self than you become righteous!

Before I go on I would like to say that I am a Christian by definition! I do believe solely in the words and teachings of Christ. I am not an atheist, agnostic or another religious follower trying to put doubt in your beliefs, I am here to shed light on this issue of what the church of Christ is truly about!

II. Christ and Church Members

There are two very noticeable problems with any religious organization that follows Christ! They are church officials and the way they dress. Priest still dress in fancy robes and in order to be forgiven of sin you need to go to the priest to get "absolution" from sins! This simply is not the case! The issue of "absolution" is more tied closer to Roman Catholicism.
