Which is Greater? Religion or Jesus
Standouts “If Religion is so great, why did it start so many wars? Why does it build huge churches, but fails to feed the poor?”
Standouts “Religion might preach grace, but another thing they practice…” “…It’s like spraying perfume on a casket.”
Standouts “Religion never gets to the core. It’s just a behavior modification, like a long list of chores.”
Standouts “If grace is water, then the church should be an ocean. It’s not a museum for good people, it’s a hospital for the broken.”
Standouts “Which means I don’t have to hide my failure or my sin. Because it doesn’t depend on me, it depends on Him.”
Standouts “I love the church and the Bible, and yes, I believe in sin. But if Jesus came to your church, would you actually let Him in?”
Standouts (Point 1) “Religion says DO” “Jesus says DONE” “Religion says SLAVE” “Jesus says SON”
Standouts (Point 2) “Religion puts you in bondage while Jesus sets you free.” “Religion makes you blind while Jesus makes you see.”
Standouts (Point 3) “Religion is MAN searching for God. Christianity is GOD searching for man.”
Standouts (Point 4) “As He was murdered, He yelled: ‘Father, forgive them. They know not what they do.’ Because when He was dangling on that cross, He was thinking of YOU.”
Standouts (Point 5) “I hate religion. In fact, I literally resent it. Because when Jesus said ‘It is Finished,’ I believe He meant it.”
