Have You Been Hurt By Religion

Have You Been Hurt By “Religion”? Are you tired of “religious people” knocking at your door? You wish they’d leave... “You can’t take it anymore!” Have you been hurt by “church people” sometime in the past? Somehow they hurt you... And the pain continues to last… Have you been “wounded” by something somebody has said? Perhaps you wonder if “they wish you were dead…” Perhaps there’s someone that you may have “befriended…” They have done something that has hurt you and “offended.” There’s probably many people that you wish would “go away.” Because of something they’ve done to “darken your day.” I’ve been there many times… Believe me I know. How someone’s actions or words can hurt your soul. Even those who go to church are often not very kind. And they don’t hesitate to give you “a piece of their mind.” Religion is not the answer. Look to Jesus and the life he gives! He alone has the power to love and completely forgive! It’s only in his shed blood that you can find atonement. He can change your life now! This very moment! He can heal your broken heart and wounded spirit. An everlasting joy and love... He freely gives it! He can do what no “church” or “religion” could ever do He can restore your life today. And make you BRAND NEW!!! By Jim Pemberton

How true Jim, people have their ways in church or out and human nature takes it's toll. I'm sure you have come across all kinds.

Well said, the church has let us all down very badly, and religion is now used as a very destructive brainwashing weapon, can't see God's hand in any of it. Elizabeth
