Why religion doesn't work anymore

Religion often focuses on external practices and rules that lack the power to transform us from the inside out. These man-made regulations may appear wise and spiritual, but they are powerless to conquer our sinful desires. The solution lies in the cross of Jesus Christ, which broke the power of sin and offers true freedom. It is through the power of God and the work of Jesus Christ that we can experience victory over the flesh. Religion is external and man-made, while the gospel is internal and God-given.Takeaways• Religion often focuses on external practices and rules, but they lack the power to transform us from the inside out.• The cross of Jesus Christ broke the power of sin and offers true freedom.• Victory over the flesh comes through the power of God and the work of Jesus Christ.• Religion is man-made and external, while the gospel is God-given and internal.________________________________________________SUPPORT:https://linktr.ee/AUTHENTICPODCAST_______________________________________________LATEST TEACHINGS:• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BX8A1lSAUL0&t=360s• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cK2ZXiGzdZ8• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOtWoK2zwLU• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JoMTP1TR9Tg&t=1063s• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yH4_W5QbaEU_______________________________________________LATEST SERMON:• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yOEN-QWgIyQ&t=14s_______________________________________________LATEST PODCAST EPISODE:• https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P44V5T5N0gI&t=6s________________________________________________Chapters00:00 Introduction01:23 The Futility of Man-Made Religion03:18 The Power of the Cross05:11 Victory Over the Flesh06:09 Religion vs. the GospelKEYWORDS:religion, rules, rituals, transformation, sinful nature, power of God, victory over the flesh, gospel
