The continuous goal of the Brookhill congregation is to search for God, to try to understand Him, His purpose for us and how He wants us to serve Him. True religion will assuredly improve the human condition, but it does so by focusing on God not on man. A man of the cloth tells them that this is true religion, and they feel good about going into a cathedral and bowing down to a statue or praying something about receiving Jesus as your personal Savior or letting the Holy Spirit move them. How you feel is unimportant. What you think God should be is irrelevant.
Human judgment is fallible.
We must simply accept God for who he is. You will find relief and comfort when you find God. But if you get the order reversed and accept any religion that seems to give you comfort, your religion will be merely superficial. When you find God, you will find a loving, benevolent Creator who cares for His children. I didn't care about Ma-maw, but I loved her stuff.
