This video is a simple response to bball1989 and his video entitled "Why I Hate Religion, But Love Jesus. I'm not seeking to attack anyone, as I say in my video. I simply want to point out errors in his message, especially because he is reaching so many people so quickly, that I feel if one trusts in these misunderstandings, they could be led astray. Many of the facts in my video were pulled from my friend Javier, who is an inspirational leader and Christian, and a person I truly admire.
The poem is as follows:
Sir, you've got to hear this,
And you have to hear it now.
Although you acknowledge some good points,
Religion isn't what this is about.
Your flawed thoughts have caused me anguish
At you mistaken points of view.
This isn't an attack,
Just maybe some things to think through.
You claim to preach the word of God,
Yet your values contradict-
The God, Our Christ and Savior,
Preached no hate for this.
You said he came to abolish religion,
But, my dear, that is untrue.
The word of God in Matthew 5:17
Claims the opposite of you.
I understand your logic,
And your resentment is not a first.
But Christ, the Lord, preached love
And utter acceptance for even that- that hurts.
Hatred is not a mission, but a hindrance at best.
You are a talented speaker,
But these teachings don't match the rest.
The Cross you bear is not against religion,
But the hypocrisy of man.
That the Church is the house of God,
And not of the voices of the land?
And though your testimony of your mistaken double life
Connects with many lost souls, that doesn't make this right.
Your message is reaching many-
More and more by the day.
It is your responsibility as a leader
To tell this the right way.
My Lord, my Christ, my Savior- of the Holy Trinity
Did not rebuke religion, but gave one to you and me.
It is not the church that starts a war,
But the hatred in man's heart.
Please don't preach against the establishment,
When the sin of man has flawed it from the start.
You ask us many questions, but they are all unfairly asked,
Because there aren't real answers to questions wrongly masked.
You ask, "Why does religion build huge churches, but fails to feed the poor."
But Jeff, my fellow Christian, religion is what gives more.
The Catholic Church, for my example, is most charitable in the world.
To be angry at man's corruption is a truly natural thought.
But don't fight hypocrisy with hatred in your heart.
'Fore, although you feel informed, your video carries ignorance from the start.
Religion is not the Church, but instead a set of beliefs.
Religion is a practice, not an establishment in the least.
And Christianity, my brother, is a religion that we share-
'Fore it is the beliefs God has taught us to always be there.
To claim to hate religion is to ignore the word of Christ,
Because the belief in God is religion in itself, right?
This response is due to fear in how quickly your message has spread.
Because you're obviously reaching people with everything that you said.
The problem with this, Jeff, is that it isn't of the Lord.
To teach hatred in a misconception or trying to settle a score
Is dangerous to say the least, and quickly getting worse.
The danger in your video is that it is NOT the word of God,
But instead, the word of you, a man like us- therefore flawed.
