“They did not say, ‘Where is the Lord, Who brought us up out of the land of Egypt, Who led us through the wilderness?” (Jeremiah 2:6, NASB)
“Christianity is an intimate, growing relationship with the person of Jesus Christ. It is not a set of doctrines to believe, habits to practice, or sins to avoid …
Religious activity apart from fellowship with God is empty ritual. The people of Jeremiah’s day were satisfied to have ritual without the manifest presence of God. They became so comfortable with their “religion” that they didn’t even notice God’s absence … When God is present, the difference will be obvious.”
