QUESTION RECEIVED:
Sir, what was the
opinion of Jesus about religion
is it correct or wrong ....
does religion makes a
man complete?
MY ANSWER:
The
religion of Jesus makes us complete.
The
Bible fully endorses religion.
James
1:27New International Version (NIV)
27
Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look
after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being
polluted by the world.
Jesus
came to fulfill the Law. He was the most
religious man ever. His habit was
attending worship, praying and helping others. He never broke The law
attending worship, praying and helping others. He never broke The law
Matthew
5:17-20 New International Version (NIV) The Fulfillment of the Law
17 “Do
not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come
to abolish them but to fulfill them. 18 For truly I tell you, until heaven and
earth disappear, not the smallest letter, not the least stroke of a pen, will
by any means disappear from the Law until everything is accomplished. 19
Therefore anyone who sets aside one of the least of these commands and teaches
others accordingly will be called least in the kingdom of heaven, but whoever
practices and teaches these commands will be called great in the kingdom of
heaven. 20 For I tell you that unless your righteousness surpasses that of the
Pharisees and the teachers of the law, you will certainly not enter the kingdom
of heaven.
You
and I on the other hand cannot keep from breaking The Law.
The
Law was given to us who could not keep the Law to point us to The Savior who
could.
This
perfect Savior graciously paid for our sins on the cross by keeping The law and
becoming the perfect sacrifice on the cross to pay for the sins and save all
who would repent and believe.
