Anyone can believe how they want to ,But let me tell you that religion is the opposite of Jesus.Jesus is gentle.Religion is harsh.Religion is who man thinks God is and that is just not who He is.Jesus is love and kind and compassionate.The religious top dogs crucified Jesus.Even though He did it willingly.Thay hated Jesus.Many churches jam their beliefs on people and all that does is make people feel bad.When I get through having church with my prayer partner I am high on life and Jesus.That is because we glorify Jesus and let the Holy Spirit do His work through us.I used to leave church feeling worse than when I went in.This is not all churches but the majority.This is why people turn to all kinds of crazy religions.and many just do not believe.Jesus is the answer not religion.This is the truth.and it is here for all to see all over the world.Jesus did not act like the religious leaders when He was on earth.There is your proof.Plain and simple.

Captain S I agree with you but the Holy Spirit had me post this to show the non believers who Jesus really is.satan hates this because it is uncovering his dirty little secret.

You've already answered your own question, and reasonably well at that. My question: what prompted this rhetorical editorial?

Jesus is love. I believe He wanted to free us from religions. He was a Jew, He did not ask us to become Jews. He asked us to follow Him. Religions can mess things up. People are more eager to follow religion and family tradition that seek what is the truth.
It is not that Jews did not know that Messiah is coming. They knew. It is just that they were so wrapped up with the religion so they did not see Messiah among them.
We need to let the Holy Spirit guide us and we need to know His Word, because God talks us through His Word. He puts people on our way. He pulls us gently to the right direction, that is why we need to think what is God's plan for us, instead of what religion demands from us.

Amen sister, I've seen so many people caught so much into the religious aspect of believing, that they forget what it's all about. Religion can lead people astray very fast, just look at the Catholic church. Follow the Bible and if any "religious" leader tries to tell you differently, you need to find another place to worship.
Jesus is our link to God, not religion.

I'm sorry, I didn't read anything about God in your question. Where does God come into this? I got a question...do all the people that don't believe that Jesus was the son of God go to hell???? Cause that would be a lot of people :)
P.S. Jesus was a wonderful Man...a loving human and he did die for us...and for what he believed.

Amen to every word that she wrote! The world is "full" of Religions, But there is "One" Jesus with ONE Salvation! There is a Big difference between Religion and Salvation. If we have accepted Jesus as our Savior, WE Have Salvation! If we Deny Jesus as God, You have no Salvation.......Only Religion! >>>>>>And No Savior!

Yup, just like every religion, Christianity claims that it isn't about being in a "religion" but having a "relationship" with the creator.
Really. You don't have a corner on that either.

Well, Jesus would give you a higher score in Scrabble, if it wasn't a proper noun
