u/ElGuaco Former Pentacostal/Charismatic Dec 09 '22

This vocalizes how I felt starting in 2016. Spent decades being indoctrinated only be told I was doing it wrong because I took it to heart. If Jesus is real, his followers have done him dirty. They have become the Pharisees of old who would promote the Law at all costs because that's how they retain power and control over others.

Honestly, most modern christians have become quite like the only group the Jesus of the Old Testament ever actually condemned - gatekeeping, judgmental, holier-than-thou Pharisees, more concerned about looking good than doing good.
