Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word

Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word

A poem I wrote to highlight the difference between Jesus and false religion. In the scriptures Jesus received the most opposition from the most religious people of his day. At it's core Jesus' gospel and the good news of the Cross is in pure opposition to self-righteousness/self-justif Religion is man centered, Jesus is God-centered. This poem highlights my journey to discover this truth. Religion either ends in pride or despair. Pride because you make a list and can do it and act better than everyone, or despair because you can't do your own list of rules and feel "not good enough" for God. With Jesus though you have humble confident joy because He represents you, you don't represent yourself and His sacrifice is perfect putting us in perfect standing with God the Father.Wanna support a good cause and also wear something that sparks conversation? Peep the Jesus is greater than religion shirts. (a fat chunk of proceeds goes to sustaining and providing resources, food, and help to homeless and downtrodden.

Church is a hospital for sinners, not a museum for saints.

@HannahTV09 What the fuck is on ya biscuit? How is he uninformed and misguided? He backs up everything he says with proof from the book based off the man he's protecting his belief of. How the fuck can you say suck ignorant and blind bullshit

@easterntaco I'm not gay. But I'm not stupid enough to believe that heterosexuality or homosexuality is a choice.

@10trojan10 no He wouldn't. unless you think you are perfect. Everyone alive has sinned and deserves punishment. A just God administers that punishment unless you accept a free gift of forgiveness. you can't be a sinner and expect reward for some good. the bad is still there and can't be ignored. Those who accept forgiveness will be rewarded for their good works after they get to Heaven

He needs to say what he hates about religion, because he is religious.

@CraazzyyyKiiiiiidd nobody can answer that with the technology we have today. and that has nothing to do with religion or god. im not saying religion is bad... all im saying is that there is absolutly no difference between religion, and jesus, the bible, and the church like he sais there is.

So many haters! Jesus let him be. He has the right to state his own opinion. A lot of people agree with what he is saying. He makes a really good point.
