Thoughts:
- Even though some have embraced atheism, majority of people today are still very much religious.
- Religion appeases the soul.
- It alleviates our guilty feelings.
- It inspires and sometimes this inspiration even results in some action.
- Religion makes us respectable people.
- But it does not give us the fullness of life. We’re still empty at the end of the day.
- Only Christ can give us the fullness of life. (Col 2:6-23)
- We must not allow anything or anyone — even religion — to substitute for a pure and personal relationship with Jesus Christ.
- Unless Christ is everything, your religion is nothing.
- Reality matters. Go for what is real.
