People who love religion more than truth...love their denomination more than
God. However, they love themselves most of all. Why?
Because their
actions speak louder than their saying “I love God.”
God wants us to love
Him for who He is. He doesn’t want lip service, where we merely go to
Sunday-go-meetings once a week and sing “My Jesus I love Thee.” He wants us to
show that we love Him by our daily living.
In 2 Timothy 3 the Bible warns
that the last days people will be hypocritical in their love for the Lord, and
that will produce perilous times. Beginning in verse 1 we read, “This know,
also, that in the last days perilous times shall come. For men shall be lovers
of their own selves, lovers of [money] . . . lovers of pleasures more than
lovers of God, having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof; from
such turn away”
This verse says people will have a form of godliness?
That means they will be religious people who say they love God, but their
lifestyles will speak louder than their words. They will love themselves, their
money, and their pleasures more than they love God.
