I learned some interesting things this past Sunday at church, a very neat look at religion versus following God. This is a quick overview but the full version in online at: http://www.lifechurch.tv/watch - a weird way to save the world.
Religion is man’s normal attempt to read God. Isaiah 29:13 . The religious laws are there to prove that you aren’t good enough and are completely dependent on God’s gift to us, Christ.
Religion leads to either pride or despair. Pride when you think you have followed all the rules better than others and despair when you reach that feeling when you realize you can’t follow all the rules no matter how hard I try.
Christ is God’s weird way to reach man. Phil. 3:4-9. Honestly the whole story is kind of hard to believe, in this day and age, with all the science we have, but it is possible!
