Religions

While the word Religion may have numerous definitions that vary over time their are certain principles that remain throughout history.

There is believed to be some sort of divine or extra human force at play in the lives of man. People often personify that force as an individual or group of individuals with certain divine characteristics or powers by which they may influence mankind directly or in general.

The personification of these powers vary and may even be vested in individuals of society either as representatives of the divine or actual divine persona or offspring. If society divides the divine into individuals they may war with each other just like virtues and vices war in the individual. The Monotheistic followers who make one God do the same thing with angels or spirit creatures who usually are lead by powerful angels.

Roman and Greek people had many gods and they often empowered men with the ability to know the will of God. These men became judges in their society deciding good and evil. It was common to address judges and magistrates in courts as "gods"

The divisions of people is usually a matter of their private opinion about who this divine god or gods are or if there is a god at all. Many people were persecuted because their opinion was different concerning God than another groups opinion. This is just personal ego and battles of will and pride. But religion has always had some control over how men live their lives and relate to one another.

Through man's history [Religion|religion]] was defined as [[the performance of your duty to a god and your fellowman]]. Men would devise systems to make sure that duty was performed and appoint men to see to the job so that its daily ministration was not neglected.

These priests an clergy were to help take care of the needy of society who deserved and needy some assistance. There was two ways to get that job done. One was to fund the work with free will offerings through some sort of charitable means and the other was to fund it with compelled offerings collected by men who called themselves Benefactors.

People would have to be in an almost hypnotic state to imagine that Christ wanted to get people to go to a building to recite prayers but if they actually need anything for their welfare they should go to the governments of the world and the "men who exercise authority one over the other"?^[1]
Jesus was so clear^[2] that His disciples were instructed to not be that way.^[1]
While the Testaments are also clear that you may legally apply for a multitude of benefits through a socialist state, but not without consequences.^[3]
Dependence upon "legal charity" will make you "merchandise", "curse children" and bring again the captivity of Egypt. This is undoubtedly why both the Testaments tells us not to covet our neighbors goods through the dainties of rulers.
Those gifts, gratuities, and benefits are the wages of unrighteousness which destroy liberty and degenerate the people into perfect savages because they are the dainties and deceitful meats of rulers provided through the covetous practices of the world which "makes the word of God to none effect".
But the modern Christian does that every day to get free schooling for their children, and social security for their parents and a myriad of other public benefits imagining they are not "workers of iniquity".
How is that the daily ministration of the early Church, the table of the LORD, the Corban of Christ which is not a snare?
How is that seeking the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness?
The Christian conflict with Rome was with the welfare system of the Imperial Cult of Rome and the public religion of the world and others like Herod and the Pharisees which was again "making the word of God to none effect".
We are to live by faith, hope, and charity which is love according to The Way of Christ and not the force, fear, and fealty which was the the ways of the world.
If Modern Christians, Jews, and Muslims would repent and seek the way of the Doctrine of Jesus, Moses, or Abraham or if they were to see the truth of their own history they could recover from the strong delusion pervasive in churches, synagogues, and mosques and their dependence upon public religion and the social safety net of rulers who are greedy for gain.^[4]
They think they understand the teachings in the Bible but have been doing the opposite of what doctrine of Jesus, Moses, and Abraham were telling their followers to do for over a century.

The conflict between groups that practiced one of these two methods has caused persecutions, too. Their systems were often called some form of Corban.

The Romans thought of themselves to be religious. They attributed their success to their collective piety (pietas). Piety was service to your Father and mother. Their society centered around the family structure. Collective piety was when those families cared about each other as much as themselves. In maintaining a good relation with the gods, you had to care for your family and for your neighbor when there was a justified need. This aid was provided by members of societies through people in society who were good at helping people.

That work was supported by the general population through a network of priests who could usually be found in an area called the Temples. Eventually, altars and buildings were built in those Temple areas and folklore and traditions were developed.
