you dont know me, but i came across your LJ and thought i'd comment to you about a few thoughts that came to mind.
Righteousness is not doing something for yourself to get closer to God or seem like you're more religious. it's minstering to those who have needs. Righteousness is the consequence of new birth. new birth in Him is not attained through righteousness. and there are no levels of Christianity, so you cannot attain a better birth or better closeness to God than other Christians. Righteousness is love that satisfies justice. (Luke 6:35) read Jeremiah 7
Being in him isn't being religious. Knowing God is a relationship, not religion and hierarchy.
you cannot advance the kingdom of God. But through his spirit in HIS time working through you, it will be accomplished what HE wishes. don't try for more than the spirit yeilds towards you
