Go and learn what this means,
“I desire mercy, not sacrifice.”
—Matthew 9.13
Jesus quotes Hosea 6.6
(twice, in fact):
God doesn’t want animal sacrifices,
but our hearts,
isn’t interested in our religion,
but in our relationships.
God doesn’t care what we believe,
God cares how we treat people.
Jesus says: choose the religion of Being in Love
over the religion of Being Right.
