The Religions of Men, Mass deception vs. The Way of Yeshua

To me, the religions of the world are no different from the golden calf Israel created in the wilderness. After witnessing the living God’s power in delivering them from Egypt—and even hearing His voice—they still turned to an image they crafted with their own hands. That idol had no breath, no life, no ability to save, to judge, or to answer a single prayer.
When I look at the many religious icons people worship today, I see the same pattern. None of them are alive. None of them possess breath, personhood, or power. They are simply human creations—shaped from the very materials that Yeshua, the true and living God, made. Yet entire nations have been built, divided, and even destroyed while fighting over these lifeless images. Such is the nature of man-made religion: it cannot give a new heart, it cannot transform a life, and it cannot enter into a relationship with anyone because it is not alive.
History confirms this. Much of the world’s suffering—bloodshed, cruelty, and oppression—has been carried out in the name of these false religions. Yeshua Himself said, “Do not believe Me unless I do the works that only God can do.” That is the standard. Man-made religions cannot pass that test.
Only Yeshua has life, breath, power, and the authority to save, to transform, and to answer the cries of His people.
