It’s not God’s plan to make of you or anyone else a religious person. A religious person is the one who follows the ways of a certain religions, observing their rituals without questioning whether the same can lead him to God or not.
There are many definitions for religion. I’d say that religion is a system whereby ill-intentioned people misuse and mislead others who have good faith. God hates that! He hates religion!
If you want to believe in something, then the God of the Bible is your best shot. It’s a question of logic. He is the first known God to humans just as the Bible is the oldest ‘religious’ text. He is the first.
As I was saying, it’s not the plan of God for us to follow a religion. Just look at the first man on earth, Adam. The was no religion! No rituals, no middleman, no set of tenets and so on and so forth. It was Adam and God, God and Adam. Of course there was a boundary – the forbidden fruit (which by the way, no one really knows whether it was an apple). There must be a boundary. That’s the way to separate the Creator from His creature. Adam had to recognize that God as the Master. That’s God implanted the discipline.
As long as Adam would subject himself to God only God would be above him. God created the world and set Adam as the administrator of all His creation! When Adam broke God’s discipline, he was in fact rejecting the perfect plan of God as well as his position as Earth’s administrator.
Many years later, with the construction of the Babel Tower, many different religions were set up. Before the water flood there was a ’sin flood’. The water flood came as a drastic measure to restore order and discipline on Earth.
We see that since the beginning faith is individual. Abel chose to do what was right while his brother Cain chose the opposite way.
I guess what I’m trying to say is that if you dare to believe and choose cosmos instead of chaos, this choice will reflect in every aspect of your life.
Just dare it! You have got nothing lose.
