When we live outside of the boundaries of God’s Word we will end up with a life of fruitless religion, and a manmade covering. The true life of Christ will be shut off to every man or woman who comes through Christ through human effort and human intellect. What we could never accomplish in a lifetime, God did in one day by sending His son to be a covering for all of our sins and to empower us to glorify His name through the Holy Spirit. At the end of your life you want to be sure that it is God’s footsteps coming to take you home with Him.
