Religion is but a fantasy an opiate of the masses.


Christ answers by His word of power and authority' - stretch out your hand' one was made as whole as the other.

Christ answers by acts of selfless love and sacrifice. Michael Orr's story in the blindside defines Christianity

Christ proves His sovereignty over present powers of the flesh and Satan and breaks bondages. Christ answers by setting people free. Tell the man who had experienced a miracle that Christ was not god, that the one who healed him restoring his sight was merely a man. Try then to get Him to deny his faith then threaten him you may have on your hands martyr. We cannot deny things that have happened to us. Tell the man who has been freed from heroin addiction by the power of the Holy Spirit, tell those who in bondage to sin have gained freedom in Christ.

Tell those who in spiritual death have been raised to life in Christ are they the same people? Can they deny what has happened to them? We must go on to receive the power of spiritual life and have our faith confirmed or we are sure or stagnate into spiritual sleep and stupor.

Far from being an opiate, faith in Christ makes one rise up from fear and oppression and fills one with Godly boldness, the spiritual life makes keen the mind and senses, it emboldens a person to take up challenges and surmount impossibilities. Faith takes the weak and fills them with power. It makes one love the life that now is and live this one life to the fullest.

Christ upholds and uplifts the poor, he heals and integrates personalities, he gives a man dignity and worth and praise on His lips. He gives strength to the poor not through violence but through restraint.

Christ restores broken marriages, the lowest and weakest of people that society rejects and women which society commodifies Christ restores to dignity. Christ restores respect and addresses the abuses from sin. He delivers from mental and spiritual torments through His power.
