Empty Ceremonies

Sacraments and rituals will not Bring forth our holiness, They're empty ceremonies that Just make men walk in darkness. Pious genuflections, deeds- They make us think we're good. Truth is in His Word, it leads To God, not to gods of wood. Once for all, Christ shed His Blood, We receive Him in our hearts. He's not in that bread, that's no God! They're lies religion imparts. Religion does not save, it blinds! God showed us just one Way. In Christ alone one truly finds The Truth and Life he needs today! God is unseen, He is Spirit. He's not seen by human sight! The Word is where our God we'll meet In the heart's where we find light. Cynthia Buhain-Baello~~03.19.19 "There is a way that seems right to man, but in the end it leads to destruction." Proverbs 14:12 "Man looks at the outward appearance but the LORD looks at the heart." I Samuel 16:7 "God is Spirit, and His worshipers must worship in spirit and in truth." John 4:24
