Words spoken shape our
thinking. The words Jesus Christ spoke so
impacted the world, that hundreds of millions of
human beings have believed in Christ. Countless
lives have been changed for the better because
of the words of Jesus Christ. Odd, that at the
same time, many take offense at Jesus Christ,
even though everything He taught was only right
and good. The real reason religious leaders of
the time of Christ took offense with Him is
because His words took away their false
authority, false power, their prestige, their
self importance, their pride, their vanity,
their false teachings, their fake status and
their looting. Jesus stripped fake religion to

"self preservation", "law", "religion", "God",
"the Bible", "false accusations", "health",
"prevention", "education", "science" and "the
way that seems right." Read
