I'm Free

I've been in church all my life and I have yet to understand church people. Some of them are so focused on sending people to hell that I wonder if THEY'LL make it into heaven. In my church life I've met and known the most judgmental people on the planet and they do it in the name of Christianity. This is not to say that regular people aren't judgmental, but in trying to win souls for Christ are we doing more harm than good?

So much of what we burn people with, is based on doctrine and personal issues rather than the Word of God. I've seen people destroy loved ones, friends, people in general with their personal beliefs. The older I got and more in touch with my faith I got. And if a person decided to have a glass of wine with their meal it no longer bothered me. And it had less to do with Paul's "for the stomach sake" reference and more to do with the fact that if you teach the truth, the Bible itself says,
"Then said Jesus to those Jews which believed on him, If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free." 
Therefore for the first time in my life, I'm free from people's opinions, I'm free from wondering if I'm good enough to make it into their version of heaven. I am free to worship.

Anyone want to join me in living FREE?
I am free to live life abundantly like Jesus said he came to give me.
