“Jesus did not create a new religion, but set us free from all the rules and regulations of religion”
― Jeremy Myers, Dying to Religion and Empire: Giving up Our Religious Rites and Legal Rights

“The truth is that God has appointed each member in the body as He wills. As you grow in intimacy with God, your passions will emerge. But don’t assume that the passion God gives you is the passion God expects of everyone. God has gifted you and appointed you as He sees fit for the purpose of edifying the body. Your calling (and my calling) is not to heap guilt upon those who do not experience what we are experiencing, but to edify the body in love as God gives us the opportunity.”
― Eddie Snipes, The Victorious Christian Life: Living in Grace and Walking in the Spirit

“What’s critical to understand is that you have access to that same eternal life-giving Spirit that powered Jesus. The words and actions of Jesus were originating from the same source. That same authority from which Jesus spoke and acted is in us.”
― Jim Palmer, Inner Anarchy: Dethroning God and Jesus to Save Ourselves and the World

“Jesus never allowed himself to be defined by the political conflicts of his day, and neither should we.”
― Gregory A. Boyd, The Myth of a Christian Nation: How the Quest for Political Power Is Destroying the Church
