...tradition and authority? Please peruse these supernal, inspired, copyright-free quotes on this:
"Institutional religion cannot afford inspiration and provide leadership in this impending worldwide social reconstruction and economic reorganization because it has unfortunately become more or less of an organic part of the social order and economic system which is destined to undergo reconstruction. Only the real religion of personal spiritual experience can function helpfully and creatively in the present crisis of civilization."
"The religion of Jesus is the most dynamic influence ever to activate the human race. Jesus shattered tradition, destroyed dogma, and called mankind to the achievement of its highest ideals in time and eternity -- to be perfect, even as the Father in heaven is perfect."
"Goals, rather than creeds should unify religionists. Since true religion is a matter of personal spiritual experience, it is inevitable that each individual religionist must have his own and personal interpretation of the realization of that spiritual experience. Let the term "faith" stand for the individual's relation to God rather than for the creedal formation of what some group of mortals have been able to agree upon as a common religious attitude."
Do you agree or not?
If yes, please share some of your personal religious experiences -- God-consciousness -- and it's benefits. Thank you !
Peace and progress in Spirit and in Father-Son Truth !
