God, who designed the right to choose your own way in life, gave opportunity to SET YOUR HEART ON HIM rather than things of the world or the Intellectual Pursuits around us. God chooses those who set their heart on Him, that is not mere religion. Religion gives man something physical and tangible to grasp on to, as in the O/T. But now a way has been made thru the Holy Spirit for a relationship thru our hearts directly to God via the Lord Jesus who directs our affairs based on Faith from Heaven. O/T sacrifices were a shadow of Jesus' death and a reminder of our imperfections that we need to submit to Him in order for Him to intervene in our lives. We make God out to be dumb by claiming rules and regulations. If you submit once again to the LAW you must fulfill the whole thing for Righteousness or trust in Him by Faith and you will be credited with Righteousness for what you do in obedience by His Spirit in good judgement in your heart. These are the true worshipers of God! He is the one who reveals Himself to you based on your Heart.
