The Freedom of Personal Faith
One man esteemeth one day above another: another esteemeth every day alike. Let every man be fully persuaded in his own mind (Romans 14:5).
To have faith without fear, you sooner or later have to come to terms with what you believe. Not with what a church says you should believe or what a creed says somebody else believed, but with what you actually do believe. Start here. It may not be much, but it’s honest. What’s the gain, anyway, of saying you believe something if you don’t? Or trying to believe something if you don’t? Whom are you fooling? Not God certainly!
Kenneth L. Wilson (1916-?)
Editor of The Christian Herald
Have Faith Without Fear (1970), page 74

Did not Jesus warn of the traditions of men making the Word of God fruitless? And yet the multitudes sit quietly on Sunday mornings and accept the precepts of their denominations spewed out of the pulpits as the Gospel…i.e., eternal damnation, man’s free will, etc.
STUDY to show THYSELF approved…who knows, you may actually find God???
