Are You a Good Existentialist?

Christianity is a relationship with Jesus Christ and not religious practices. If we are trying to approach God through zealous religion apart from an eternity transforming relationship with Jesus Christ, we are self-deluding and hypocritical; we have put off God with heartless duties; we have acted in religion as if we have been blessing an idol; we are left powerless to search our hearts and regulate it, and exercise it in our performances; a religion that leaves us without an eternal standing before the coming Lord. May we be those who are found diligent to study our hearts, watch our hearts, keep our hearts! How right it is to step aside often to talk with God and our own hearts; that we would keep a more true and faithful account of our thoughts and affections; that we would seriously demand of our own heart at least every evening, “O my heart, where have you been today, and what has engaged your thoughts?”Core thoughts of this episode curated from John Flavel: "Treatise on Keeping the Heart" (public domain).
