Sad to say, most people who claimed to be christian are just religious, they have never accepted Christ as their Lord and Savior. They look for a feeling or an experience. They attend church, maybe for the great music or because of the programs offered, maybe they go to be entertained. When you ask them about how their church service was and they reply "I was blessed", but fail to mentioned anything about God's Word that was preached, maybe it wasn't. They are into the latest so called christian fads, and go off to buy the latest christian "How To Books", but never study THE BOOK, God's Word.
Today with Christianity, it's "About Me" and no longer about Him. A religious christian knows nothing about Theology (bible doctrine), but can sing you the latest praise song. Don't dare asked what the Scripture says or means, the only answer you will get, "Here's what it means to me." You won't hear "Thus Says the Lord", but only a philosophy.
Christianity is not a religion but a RELATIONSHIP with God. Our life service (worship) is to Present ourselves as a Living Sacrifice to God (Rom. 12:1). Our goal is to Know Christ and to become like Him (Philp. 3:7-11), to be Transformed (Rom. 12:2) and to be a Worker for God, who is not ashamed, through the diligent Study of God Word (II Tim. 2:15). In every way our life should be a reflection of Christ (Gal.5:22).
