Loving Jesus but not the Church II

 Okay... sorry about that to be i sort of stopped short in the middle of a sentence. I meant to say I realized that there is so many people who have different ideas of what Christianity is and it seems as Christianity is this topic that seems to interest alot of people. I think often times, a lot of people forget that even if in the frameworks of our minds, we know that everyone is not perfect, but we somehow cannot help confuse ourselves such as if some one gets straight A's, she must be really nice, and further beyond, but we forget to look at the person rather than the label that lead us to judge a person by that label. For what i mean to say is that a going to church every Sunday or not going to church on Sundays does not mean anything unless u mean it in ur heart, u love jesus as willing to take the time to go to church. My words may not seem to say what i mean, but i cannot find the words to say much but simply, i know that religion is a word i rather not use but a relationship of love and i don't mean love meaning getting everything u ever wanted, but tough love, love that gives what u need, even if you may not understand it or you may not get what u thought u wanted, but tough love always will see to it that ur heart will be fulfilled. Rules may seem to fill the church, but these rules are rules that are meant to protect just as parents have rules to protect kids and they rules meant out of love not strictness. That is what loving jesus and not the church seems to say to me.
