God says: COME OUT OF HER, MY PEOPLE, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues. Revelation 18:4. Religion may make a person feel comfortable and righteous, but God reminds us that all our righteousness are as filthy rags. Isaiah 64:6. Nicodemus was one of the most religious men in Israel, yet he needed to be born again. Religion is mans efforts to reach God by good works and sacraments, but salvation is trusting in Christs blood sacrifice on the cross as the full payment for our sins. You can be religious, yet not saved and still go to hell. Receive Jesus Christ as your Saviour and youll then become a son of God. There are seven possible reasons why some people choose to remain in their church: 1. Lack of knowledge of the Word of God. 2. Fear of rejection by family and friends. 3. Fear of going against ancestors. 4. Fear of becoming a social outcast. 5. Habit. 6. Fear of going to hell. 7. Fear of change to the unknown. Ask Christ to save you rather than a church. Trust the Bible to guide you rather than a man made system.
