Too many of us now tend to worship self indulgence and consumption.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
The self is just not a worthy enough vehicle to worship.
I think worship is a lifestyle, first of all.
Self-centered indulgence, pride and a lack of shame over sin are now emblems of the American lifestyle.
The fact that 35 percent of all American giving went to religious organizations in 2010 reflects how closely bound many of us are with our place of worship.
Self-made men often worship their creator.
Every man now worships gold, all other reverence being done away.
We are so conformist; nobody is thinking. We are all sucking up stuff; we have been trained to be consumers, and we are all consuming far too much.
Most of us are at war with ourselves, are our own worst enemies. We expect a great deal of ourselves, yet we do not put ourselves in a condition to achieve great things. We are either too indulgent to our bodies, or we are not indulgent enough.
The more I study religions the more I am convinced that man never worshipped anything but himself.
Worshipping is stripping ourselves of our idols, even the most hidden ones, and choosing the Lord as the centre, as the highway of our lives.
