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-justification. 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.

Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Muslim Version || Spoken Word || Response
A poem I wrote to highlight the difference between Jesus and false religion. This is not an attack upon Christians, so please don't take this as offensive, it's just a means of education and let people know what Jesus was truly sent with. Jesus is a Prophet of Islam, yet a God of Christianity. In Islam God is all Powerful, But in Christianity God was overpowered and crucified on the cross, how can the Almighty God be overpowered, these are just examples for people to think about, we are not forcing you to believe, just ponder and question. The Quran is the final testament, Muhammad is the final Messenger. Islam is the final religion, so no I dont Hate Islam. One God, One God only, He does not beget nor was he begotten, He is the GREATEST. And has no partners. (Holy Quran Ch 112) Facebook: www.facebook.com Twitter: #spokenwordmuslim The following is a video response to bball1989's video "Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus || Spoken Word". "And they say: the Beneficent hath taken unto Himself a Son. Assuredly ye utter a disastrous thing, whereby almost the heavens are torn, and the earth is split asunder and the mountains fall to ruins, that ye ascribe to the Beneficent a son, when it is not meet for (the Majesty of) the Beneficent that He should chose a son. There is none in the heavens and the earth but cometh unto the Beneficent as a slave." (Qur'an 19:88-93).

My Heart Behind 'Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus'
This is a video of me speaking at Next Level Church, in Fort Myers, Florida. In the video I touch on the differences between believing in our own moral effort for our righteousness and that of receiving Jesus' perfect righteousness based on His behavior. There is nothing like the free gift of salvation that He offers, and there is nothing better than knowing you can rest in Him. I hope the video encourages, edifies, and brings you closer to Jesus.

Freestylin': Jesus = Religion
As with Bethke's video, I too am now slowing down the comments. I've done my best to respond honestly and with grace to all of you (even those of you wishing me harm. oO) Unfortunately, I will not be able to keep up the pace, and I cannot allow comments that make clearly false assertions to post without some response. As a result, comments will now be posted after approval. If you're not approved, it means you're either being rude, or speaking without sufficient backing. +pax+ ------ Worldview Everlasting AskdaPastor2.0 responds to a host of request to "fisk" the viral video "Jesus GreaterThan Religion," a faux hip-hop update of Scott Wesley Brown's (just missed the sixties) 1970's hit "I'm Not Religious, I Just Love the Lord." It didn't help much then, and it probably won't help much now, especially given the fact that rightly distinguishing Law and Gospel is an art that bashing "religion" won't help any one learn any time soon.

The Mental Damage Done By Religion
note: While I don't agree with the conclusions about this video about religion causing literal (physical) damage to the brain, I think the point is well taken about conditioning people not to think or to question deeply held beliefs. It seems to me this sort of indoctrination will inevitably limit critical thinking skills and the potential of many believers to investigate all ideas with an open mind. This can certainly cause stress and emotional harm later in life when confronted with facts that don't match up with their religious beliefs.
