Not about Rules, Ritual, or Religion - borrowed from Chip Igram

Jesus on “Authentic Spirituality”

• …you Pharisees clean the outside of the cup and dish, but inside you are full of greed and wickedness. – Jesus
Luke 11:39 (NIV)
• …thus you nullify the word of God by your tradition that you have handed down. And you do many things like that. -Jesus
Mark 7:13 (NIV)
• …you are the ones who justify yourselves in the eyes of men, but God knows your hearts. What is highly valued among men is detestable in God's sight. – Jesus
Luke 16:15 (NIV)
• And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by men. I tell you the truth, they have received their reward in full. – Jesus
Matthew 6:5 (NIV)
• And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans, for they think they will be heard because of their many words. – Jesus
Matthew 6:7 (NIV)
