Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God.
Final concepts:
It is a valid question that by having been taught that to stand outside any Traditional Formal Organization or religious organization, are we propagating or projecting the idea of what is called Secularism;
sec�u�lar (s�k�y�-l�r) adj. 1. Worldly rather than spiritual. 2. Not specifically relating to religion or to a religious body: secular music. 3. Relating to or advocating secularism. 4. Not bound by monastic restrictions, especially not belonging to a religious order. Used of the clergy. 5. Occurring or observed once in an age or a century. 6. Lasting from century to century. --sec�u�lar n. 1. A member of the secular clergy. 2. A layperson. [Middle English, from Old French seculer, from Late Latin saecul�ris, from Latin, of an age, from saeculum, generation, age.] --sec�u�lar�ly adv
Understanding that not to belong to any religious organization, you are then participating in UNBELIEF. In light of scripture this is not true. Reason:
Luke 17:20-21 (KJV)
And when he was demanded of the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God should come, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: [21] Neither shall they say, Lo here! or, lo there! for, behold, the kingdom of God is within you.
Point: if your personal judgment by you ideas of your fellow-believers-in-Christ is based upon �what� religious organization they belong to, then your judgment is based upon the OUTSIDE and NOT the INSIDE. The Kingdom of God is within! Who among men can Judge the Heart of man except God Himself.
In closing, this letter / booklet was not given to you by myself or those who have helped me in presenting it to cause you to doubt your participation in your fellowship or Church.

It and it alone will set you FREE, to Joy in Him Who is the TRUTH, Him being Christ Jesus who is LORD OF ALL!
