Left our church of 8 years because we found out it was a cult, and the man running it was terrible. Our friends turned on us and shunned us. That gave me a loss of identity, I was so lonely and suicidal. Then we went to a new church . And I remember crying my eyes out at the first sermon, and I knew this church wasn’t about religion, it was about Jesus.
It's saddening that most churches it's either a cult, a fundraising place or just a religion and not abt Jesus Very sad that we are in this places thinking we at home but lost and passing by May God help us indeed to know the way, truth and the lifr
God is not a religion. He is a relationship ♥️ I felt so lost and defeated in my life until one night I told God “I have no idea where to read in my Bible so please show me where I need to start.” Then when I opened my Bible I started crying because the passage related to me and my situation and gave me guidance on what I needed to do and it gave me encouragement with what I needed to hear. It starts with inviting God into your heart and surrendering yourself to Him by seeking Him in His word. I hope this helps someone ♥️ you are not alone and God loves you more than anything. Please remember that we all have trials so being close to God doesn’t mean life gets easy. It just means you have an unexplainable peace through the chaos around you. I pray you feel His presence and peace 🥰
Yes the world has got folks thinking of being a Christian as a religion but rather as a relationship with Christ.. They will do all he can to keep the world from coming close to Christ.. 🙏🏿
Christian churches waste so much time with shallow services and do not emphasize the truth of love beyond words that God saw that we couldnt be perfect so He did it for us and then took or punishment for what we lack ...He loved us when were completely against Him ..show love # blessedarethepeacemakers
Lyrics: There's a flaw within religion We do good in fear of hell While we're starving for relation Something greater than ourselves Who could it be? Help me believe 'cause my heart cries of God My mind won't agree It's a battle of flesh and a spirit that breathes Help me to see who could it be Am I just passing time In some pointless life? Does church have meaning? 'Cause it's got me thinking Am I better off dead or alone, and broken? Most the church I've seen in life Dare a word of love, be spoken They'd rather prove their religion right Who could it be? Help me believe 'cause my heart cries of God My mind won't agree It's a battle of flesh and a spirit that breathes Help me to see who could it be Am I just passing time In some pointless life? Does church have meaning? Are the songs worth singing? Must be amazing grace That I'm still in this place My world's been sinking And it's got me thinking The priest says I'm clean But I still feel the weight While the world tells me I'm free So, why am I in chains? Am I just passing time In some pointless life? Does church have meaning? Are the songs worth singing? Must be amazing grace That I'm still in this place My world's been sinking And it's got me thinking Who could it be? (Who could it be?) Help me to see (Help me to see) My heart cries for God (My heart cries for God) But my mind won't agree Who could it be?
The difference between religion where you do ‘good’ in fear of hell and being a follower of Jesus is all about a personal relationship with God. When you love the Lord you want to be like Jesus serve God and others because you love the Lord so much. I pray God always increases our love for Him. Thank you for spreading the good news through your music🙏🏽
You got the message, his kingdom is not of this world, the kingdom is already in us, his spirit does not dwell in temples, brick structures, nor organizations, his spirit and truth dwell in our hearts and minds. Thanks Munn for holding religion accountable🔥
I relate so much to this song.... nobody understands why I feel this way, but you help me know I'm not the only one who feels this way, so thank you❤ I love every song of yours❤ I love you❤❤
Don’t give up, be thirsty for the knowledge of Christ. Your passion is beautiful. Fight those demons with the sword of scripture. There are many false Christians, you can see through the fruits they give. Finding these songs have pulled the strings of my heart. I hope you find Christ fully and truly❤️
No matter what conflicts we humans create on Earth, God is always with us. We try our best but sometimes we feel worthless.. keep your heads up guys, ya'll are amazing and keep pushin' cause it's worth it! Bless you all! 🖤
I really love his way of putting the lyrics in that song so perfectly that his every song goes in loop on my playlist. And yes your songs are really worth singing ❤
I think any goodness in religion comes from the goodness that is already inside people, who happen to be believing/participating in a religion. I feel the struggle in your song and really appreciate you making it 🙏
You are an amazing artist, the way you transform letters into a beautiful reflection. Just today I needed to listen to this song. We love you #MunnLights Fans Mexico
Another amazing song, Munn! So glad you're thinking the deep thoughts and pursuing truth. Jesus is the way, the truth and the life. Continue to seek Him and you will find Him! It's not a religion, it's a relationship. :) God bless!
This makes me think of all the different beliefs out there, and how many can twist it around even within a Church or "religion." Church is not necessarily a certain place of God, but rather The Church lives in the people of whom are "born-again" people loving God, and loving others where ever they are at in life. And those that gather together where ever their at to bring praise and thanks. God is with you where ever you're at in your walk of life. May joy, peace, and happiness be with you.
I LOOOOVVV THE LYRICCC!!! especially "the world tells me i'm free, so why am i in chains". Everyday I scroll through tiktok and instagram and although i'm free, i still feel like i'm in this constant loop or a prison i can't break through.
I didn't grow up religious, but always been told God watches over us. My heart knows I can confide but my mind doesn't fully agree. I couldn't believe in him more than ever now because of one person. My partner and I were talking deeply the other day and I thought it was God talking through this man and I couldn't help but cry and give all my respect away to him(partner). It sounds like a crazy thing, and I know not all will believe it, but I think I found my man and my love for God.
Listen boy, we are going all to die, and at that point we'll see and know the truth, just wait....but for now, yes, believe my boy, because if you believe, you'll be strong enough to face the darkness of this world....if you believe you won't feel that you are alone, and you'll be sure that there is always a good plan from God for your life, so yes believe. Since being 8 or 9 years old I've been always thinking of the meaning of life, and for now I believe that we are here to achieve a great purpose, and adding a new value, and making a change. We still need religion because we need these rules to protect ourselves from ourselves. Choose the religion that offers your soul peace my boy ❤️
.... whats the point of this life Do church have meaning Cause it got me thinking I'm i better of dead Or alone and broken Most of the church ive seen in life.... So deep so relatable thoughts and view of how reality is
That's an amazing idea of a lyric video. I'd expect people copying that idea very soon haha and the more you seek God, the more likely you'll find him and you'll be amazed with how actually good he is.
This brother in God (or humanity if you aren't sure about God) should spend a lot of time in silence, such as a cabin in the woods or mountains and discover "wordless prayer" until he discovers that what the bible talks about that God wants to dwell within us and that our body is a temple of God. The song is spot on, right how my church going, seeking and doubting journey (around 10 years) was like, until I just tried to focus on what reality is, spending a lot of time doing "nothing" (meditating, praying for hours daily) - after a while I listened to Bagavatgita and some Yogi stuff but always kept my eye on the bible as well. There are some universal spiritual experiences we as humans can make - they are fascinating, beautiful, mysterious and mystic and they answer a lot of questions just without words. I don't have all the answers but I will always but Jesus' words and teachings and His spirit first on my path through life on earth because there's a lot of warning leaving his narrow path. Anyway, a heart who shouts out to God so much will surely find eventually and even one disciple, Thomas, was called the "one with doubt".
O M Goodness. I don't know you. But your songs are so clear and loud. I can hear you. I love you. God is love. James 1 or 5 🤦🏾♀️ says, "If any of you lack wisdom, you are to ask God who gives to ALL generously and UNGRUDGINGLY." (CSB) I love you. I shed a few tears.❤❤❤NIV and CSB are the versions to read when you don't understand the KJV. I hope these words are yours and true. We love you and God does too❤️❤️🫶🏾
Very beautiful song. Thank you for not being afraid to touch on thses topics. We all like to associate Christianity with the stereotypical "good" Christian, and we forget that Christ is literally for everyone. Even more so for those that are hurting and questioning...
Exactly I’m so glad you see the song for what it is. My faith is in Jesus and He has brought me through everything. This song is the first step in a series of songs that tell a story of finding Jesus
@itismunn I love to hear that! I noticed a few mentions of God/Jesus in some of your other songs, and now I'm really looking forward to what's coming :)
😭😭 I wish i could record what I want to say because typing isnt going to mean as much as hearing my heart!! I began a relationship with Jesus about almost 2 months now! I have listened to this amazing music! I just feel like I can relate to this. As a follower of Jesus and as an individual I battle with a lot of mental health stuff, including... Suicide. I'm getting help. But with hearing all these songs from Munn, God I'm trying, fear of eternity, those 2 songs have hit hard as well as this song. I want to believe God forgives me of my mental issues, and that he loves me, but its hard to believe how God could love me and want me😭😭. I work night shift at a hospital and I know that sounds crazy but I love helping people, but I have a hard time helping myself due too my depression and anxiety, PTSD, etc... So I try so hard to believe and trust God sees me and hears me😢 and forgives me. As for church, I just know its soooo hard for me to get out especially coming home from the hospital. GOD PLEASE DONT ABANDON ME😭😭😭😭!
This songs I relate to its hard to believe in a God at times but the relationship of talking to him and telling him all the pain and hurt is amazing but the pain of losing someone who shouldn't have had what happened happen and being In a world that acts like everything is amazing but there is still so much bad. everything has a good and bad side to it but believing in a heaven and he'll is easier to me then a big bang and God keeps me whole when I've been so broken at times I didn't know what to do or believe anymore
I've never related so deeply to a song before. I've spent so many nights in tears questioning if I'm better off dead, and asking God all those "why" questions. I've been raised Christian my whole life, I have very strong faith in God, but I have strong doubt in myself. I question why I exist, I wonder if God hears my cries. But I know he does. I know I haven't been forgotten, even though it feels like that sometimes. Much love💜💜
