Jesus was against religion too. Remember his retorts to the Pharisees?
Probably not in the way insinuated here.
This was His problem with the Pharisees:
“These people honor me with their lips, but their hearts are far away. Their worship is a farce, for they replace God's commands with their own man-made teachings.” (Mark 7:7)
People love to replace God's commands with their own man-made teachings.
As it relates to how Christians should worship, Jesus said this:
“But the hour is coming, and now is, when the true worshipers shall worship the Father in spirit and truth, for the Father seeks such to worship Him” (John 4:23).
And He said this:
And you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’ (Mark 12:30)
Christians ARE modern day Pharisees, spiritual ancestors.
