There are so many people who do not practice religion because sometimes, people hate religion because of their frustrations in religion. Religion implies something good to us. It helps us to be bound again to God because we have separated from God.
The Bible speaks of that idea in the 2 Corinthians 5:19-20 which says; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us; we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.
This is the basic idea of religion and it is nothing more than reconciliation with God. Coming to earth, is a whole lot of thing and in earth, so many people may feel like they want to detach themselves away from God. Well, the best thing and what God wants is reconciling with him and religion is the best way to achieve that.
Religion and prayer serve as an intermediary between humans and God. That’s why when we pray, we feel a kind of connection with God which makes it easier for us to trust and also believe that we have a God even though we haven’t seen our God before but God is real and he is our creator.
Unfortunately, some people have separated themselves from God which was written in Isaiah 59:2 that; But your iniquities have separated between you and your God, and your sins have hid his face away from you, that he will not hear.
So many of us are meant to always run back to God whenever we have a problem but for some, their sins won’t make them run to God. Instead of running to God, they will continue to sin.
Now, this is where religion takes over and you will be able to reach through God.
