Wisdom - Jesus was not a Christian


Listen Later

What we call Christianity was created by people not God.

Jesus is bigger than Christianity, he’s not a joiner of groups or the head of a denomination. He’s not a fan of religion which Christianity has often been reduced to. 

All forms of tribalism were created by us including denominationalism. 

I’m a Christian but that doesn’t define me or Jesus or you. 

I love and follow Jesus but often Christianity tells me how, where and when to do that like an instruction manual for an object I bought. 

Let’s not reduce Jesus to our Christian tribe or any tribe. If Jesus has a group it’s the humanity group.

The cross was not for the church, it was for the world.
