Religion is a “got to” way of life. Redemption is a “get to” way of life!

Religion is a door you must pass through in order to get into God’s presence.  Redemption is a door held open by Jesus that no man can shut!

Religion is man’s attempt to satisfy a holy God.  Redemption is God’s attempt to make us holy by the sacrifice of a holy substitute!

Religion is a shadow of the things to come—it has no substance or power.  Redemption is the reality of things to come—in the substance of our flesh and words.

Religion is form, ritual, tradition; an empty shell. It contains no life or revelation within.  Redemption is the inner reality of the kingdom of God in a temple of flesh. It needs no form, ritual, or tradition because the King Himself resides within!
