![WHAT IS THE BUDDHIST RELIGION OF JAINISM? [2 of 2] Jesus talked about the Jewish Pharisees forcing their followers to perform prescribed works as the way to supposedly reach a pleasant afterlife, the same sort of works that today’s Jainism (an offshoot of Buddhism) holds their people to. What did Christ say about people who force followers to perform manmade tasks as the supposed ticket to heaven? He called the Pharisees what they were: fools and hypocrites. Here is Jesus addressing the Pharisees in Matthew 23:15 and 27:"Woe to you, blind guides! You go over
land and sea to win a single convert, and when he becomes one,
you make him twice as much a son of hell as you are…; You are like whitewashed tombs, which look beautiful on the outside, but on the inside are full of dead men’s bones and every kind of impurity.” The Pharisee’s rules where false teachings, useless burdens put on people. Completely contrary to what the Pharisees prescribed, Jesus had the people follow Him, promising this at the end of Matthew 11: "Come to Me…you will find rest for your souls. My yoke is easy and My burden is light.” But even today, because people refuse to accept Christ’s free gift of salvation, those caught in false religions like Jainism continue to suffer under Pharisee-type rules, not to mention risking an eternity away from God, ending
up in hell, if they don’t accept Jesus before their death. | image tagged in jainism,buddhism,hindu,god,bible,jesus | made w/ Imgflip meme maker](http://i.imgflip.com/5ylfaf.jpg)
