There is ONLY ONE mediator between God and man.Religion is a con: a set up to make you think you can somehow earn your way to God if you follow enough rules and rituals. A way to be “good enough” to earn salvation. The truth is that no one is good enough to make it to heaven on their own (I know I’m not). That’s because God is HOLY. We could never meet His Holy standards by our own efforts.But here comes the (almost too-good-to-be-true) good news:God knows we could never be good enough, so He made a way for us. You just have to believe it, and trust Him.Jesus said "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me."That exclusive statement rules out all man-made efforts to get to God, and therefore, ultimately, heaven.The way to God is a PERSON, not a religion."I am the way.""I am the door.""I am the gate."Test these claims Jesus made about Himself. Jesus is the one and only real-life PORTAL into this spiritual dimention... God’s Kingdom is HERE on earth! So close you can touch it!The cross is a spiritual 'black hole' for the world's sins, crimes and evil. For your sins, crimes and evil. What Jesus did on the cross was as personal as it gets. He willingly took your place in death to pay the price you owed to God and to society for the things you have done. Why? Because He loves you. Love beyond human understanding.Any organization that makes the (ridiculous) claim "You need Jesus PLUS US to get to heaven." is not from God. Jesus is all you will ever, ever need."Come to me all you who are burdened and weary and I will give you rest for your souls. Take My yoke upon you; for My burden is easy, and My yoke is light."“Come to me….”“Draw close to me and I will draw close to you…”This is a gentle command. Are you willing to change your mind? Are you willing to obey and let God have his rightful place in your life?You are being called, dear one. But ultimately, the choice is yours.
You don't.... they are people, like you, who God has put a "call" on their life, using them to help others to understand their religion and religious beliefs
Rom 10:13 For “everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
Rom 10:14 How then will they call on him in whom they have not believed? And how are they to believe in him of whom they have never heard? And how are they to hear without someone preaching?
Rom 10:15 And how are they to preach unless they are sent? As it is written, “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”
Ephesians 4:11 And He (Jesus)Himself gave some to be apostles, some prophets, some evangelists, and some pastors and teachers, 12 for the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry, for the [e]edifying of the body of Christ, 13 till we all come to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God,
If you listened to a preacher you might have learned this
They are just there to look after god's money for it.
One dead giveaway is the fact that they all tell us god needs all of our cash, then we see the middlemen spending it for god too.
Preachers are deadbeats, parasites on society. They have held us back, and sent us into war and graves as long as they have existed. No greater evil has ever been invented, the god delusion has that distinction all by itself.
Because without such middlemen, they'd all have to find real jobs.

Because we can't accept Him within until we learn about Him, know how to find Him, and then do so. We learn that from others who have already done so.
Yes and no.

You don't, but don't tell the charlatans who are stealing your money.

So they can convince you to give them your money so they can fund their illegal dealings

Religion is about middlemen.

Well I'm Christian, so I believe what Jesus taught. And that it is that through his Church you will objectively know God and his saving grace.
Because without such middlemen, they'd all have to find real jobs.
