God has set us free from "man made religion." Religion often keeps us away from God. It makes it all about what we do instead of what God has done. I can do nothing to make God love me more or less. The easiest way to think of this is by thinking of our own children. We love them no matter what they do or say. God loves us and offers himself to us no strings attached. Man has come along and tied up all the strings. These strings keep us from God.
I grew up in a Church setting that taught us to doubt our self worth in Christ, causing fear and doubt. Always doubting if God would save me. Leaving many of us with a warped sense of self, beat down, and thinking we could never do enough. A "step child" mentality thinking I can never really get God's love.
It is true that we can never do enough, but we can know that we are going to be saved. We can have confidence before the throne of God. We are not step children, we are heirs! Kings Heirs!
