“Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David and over his kingdom,
to order it and to establish it with justice and with righteousness,
from now until forever. The zeal of the Lord of Hosts
will perform this.” Isaiah 9:7

Small group of radicals, illiterates, and ne’er-do-wells
hailed him as the Messiah, the Christ
Everybody else rejected him,
especially the very religious types
Not a great king, a priest or a prophet
A nobody from nowhere with an uncouth accent
He didn’t seem to take the Law seriously
Some of his best friends were whores and crooks
Claimed his authority was higher than Moses’

28 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. 29 Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.”
Matthew 11

Jesus > ReligionWhy he’s so much better than
trying harder, doing better, and
being good enough.

Jesus came to create a way of salvation, not start a religion.

Jesus came to create a way of salvation, not start a religion.
Because religion ends up corrupting The Message, leading people back into a new kind of darkness.

GALATIANS 1:6 I am astonished that you are so quickly deserting the one who called you to live in the grace of Christ and are turning to a different gospel— 7 which is really no gospel at all. Evidently some people
are throwing you into confusion and are trying to pervert the gospel of Christ.

The Judaizers
“false believers”Galatians 2:4
Men must be circumcised Must obey all Jewish laws

GALATIANS 1:9 As we have already said, so now I say again: If anybody is preaching to you a gospel other than what you accepted, let them be under
God’s curse!… 11 I want you to know, brothers and sisters, that the
gospel I preached is not of human origin. 12 I did not receive it from any man, nor was I taught it; rather, I
received it by revelation from Jesus Christ.

GALATIANS 1:13 For you have heard of my previous way of life in Judaism, how intensely I persecuted the church of God and tried to destroy it. 14 I was
advancing in Judaism beyond many of my own age among my people and was extremely zealous for the
traditions of my fathers.

GALATIANS 1:15 But when God, who set me apart from my mother’s womb and called me by his grace,
was pleased 16 to reveal his Son in me so that I might preach him among the Gentiles, my immediate
response was not to consult any human being.

More People Hate Religion Today
Maybe it’s because Christians have perverted what Jesus came to establish. Not a new religion. A new way of living in God’s grace.
