-Jesus came to save the world.
But Christendom says that He has failed miserably, since most of mankind is lost forever.
-God is love.
But Christendom says that God's Love is shown in His endless torture of the creatures that He is supposed to love more than man himself is able to love.
-Jesus Christ is to be seen in your heart.
But Christendom's traditions teach that man's heart is wicked and not to be trusted.
And so, mankind, through the traditions of men, is kept blind and confused as to their own salvation, which is Christ IN them, the hope of glory.
Know ye not that Jesus Christ IS IN YOU? Test yourselves..

-We're to be led by the Spirit.
But not when we go to church. There professionals with titles of honor from other men perform on stage for us.
All that Jesus is and does is in us.
-But we not only are not allowed to develop together the expression of Him when we meet, what ever influence this was meant to have on culture we are giving away to non-elected secular government's bureaucrats and unlawful legislating judges.
We're to bear one another's burdens.
-But we're not allowed to interact with one another in the pre-planned "order of service" or mass on the printed page.
I went to church; but the Church wasn't on the program (and nobody even missed her!)

Amen.
Our doctrines often do not match with Scripture, and if so, it's important to re-evaluate.
Saul was on his knees before Jesus, calling him "Lord," even before he knew His name. He learned in an instant that Jesus had come again, in the disciples, and that it was his time to know his Savior, too.
No man is beyond the power of God. Churches today are busy telling people that God has stopped working. Nothing is farther from the truth! God is working, saving people like you and me daily, and His power will be seen in ALL the earth.
So instead of exalting man and man's free will, we ought to be exalting GOD and HIS will which is working ALL things according to HIS Good pleasure.

Not everybody In John 3:3 Jesus the author of our faith said: ``Truly truly I say unto you, Except a man be born again, he CANNOT SEE THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN``... or any thing of the Lord God wisdom or identity outside of nature, not even the lower kingdoms of the devil unless the devil slip up and shows himself but that is very rare...God will not reveal himself unless their is anointed prayer of a child of Jesus Christ and the lost person show interest into being a believer. The only thing God does in the world for the lost is to be a regulator of his creation and a regulator of the evil against man tolerance. God is not in the lost people, and will not show himself until he turns repents to be obedent......

Fine...so long as you do not limit the work of God to this life before you die. The Scriptures nowhere teach that. Jonah (chp 2) is a prime example along with Jesus preaching to the dead. Still, I think you overstate it. While we are God's royal Priesthood in the earth in this age, God says He manifests to those that sought Him not.

I disagree; God is indeed in everyone, since His word is in our hearts and mouths. Many do not know it or understand it, but when He chooses to reveal this to us, then we begin to see Light and Life.
The only difference between the sinner and the saint is the amount of revelation that God has given.
God is not affected by our sinful condition. He can change any of us in an instant, and it is all His work. Man can do nothing of himself. It is God in you working in you, if you have a desire to know Him better. He came to show Himself to us, it is not us who "choose" Him.
Blessings,
