In the last article, I proposed the question, “Is the Designer trying to find man?”. If he is, we can immediately rule out religion. Why? Because religion is all about “man’s efforts toward God”, an idea dispelled in my article, Transcendent Truth. Man can’t find God. But he’ll try.

By considering the story of the Bible (see my article, How To Get Spiritually Healthy) we discovered that man’s fallen condition is the result of his EGO. It’s man’s ego that leads him to eternal death. Unwilling that any man should die eternally, God came to earth in the form of a man, Jesus.
