@nick.zei: What if Jesus walked into a modern church in 2025?
He might not recognize it.
Not the buildings, not the systems, not even the message. This skit reveals Jesus not as a figurehead of religion,
but as a mystic who came to reveal what all true teachers point to:
The divine lives within you. It’s for those waking up…
For the ones seeing beyond dogma - and realizing the truth shows up in all traditions:
In the Tao. In the Gita. In the silence of the Buddha. In the words of Christ. This is for the those who’ve felt something deeper beneath the surface.
For those who've sensed that Jesus wasn’t here to start a religion,
but to ignite inner awakening to god. Rooted in scripture, grounded in mysticism, backed by scholars. 📜 SOURCES + CONTEXT for this skit: ✝️ Biblical References: • Matthew 21:12-13 - Jesus flips tables at the temple
