"They just use me as a cover for teaching whatever suits their fancy." ~~Jesus

Jesus is very direct about how religious leaders are focused on justifying what they teach to match their way of seeing things. That is not God's way.

Jesus challenges us not to see things from a religious point of view. We must have a heart after God, seek what God wants us to do and say, and do that only. The focus is on God and not what we think or believe.

"They just use me as a cover for teaching whatever suits their fancy." ~~Jesus (Mark 7:7 The Message)
