religion in my eyes

I ’m not here to make an advertisement about Christianity but to tell you how I think about religion.
Last weekend and this weekend I have been to City Harvest Church. Our friends from the church invited us to join them to watch the Easter drama and an English Service. At first I wanted to go the church to have a view of how westerners celebrate Easter. So I went to the church. The drama showed how Jesus Christ died for our ordinary people and rose after 3days. During the drama, there was an incident unexpected. In one scene the actor who played the role of Jesus carried a big heavy Cross and drugged his legs ahead with the welts on his skin, what’s more, the soldiers of Roman strapped him. He screamed painfully all the way. At that time many Christians cried. What’s more an audience even rushed to the stage and wanted to rescue Jesus with all his face covered by tear. I was so moved at that time.
After that show I was invited to a party. In which a girl from China told us her story about how god has changed her personality traits from arrogance to humble and easygoing. This change has bring her so many friends and happiness that she had never experienced before. Many other people told us their own stories of how God changed them. For example, a manager told us that before he believed in God, he was one of the punks wandering everyday. Then changes happened to him after he believed in God. He began to be more serious and thankful to life. He followed the teaching of God and after years of hardworking he became a manager of a big company.
This sounds incredible. When I was there I thought how and why these amazing things happened. In my opinion, the reason is very simple.
They have faith. They know themselves very much. So they can’t truly believe in themselves. So the choose to believe in God, who they regard as a perfect man. They thought Jesus sacrificed himself to save them. They worship Him and follow everything He told them. The teaching is simplely the ethics in life. Without Jesus’ teaching, they also they should do in that way. But sometimes, they can’t control themselves and don’t believe in themselves that they could do it, so they don’t do in the way they should do. But once they believe in God, they have a strong desire to follow the teaching of God. So the girl believed that God told her to be humble and easygoing, and she did in that way. She believed that she could do it, so she really made it. As to the manager, he also followed the teaching and changed himself. They didn’t believe in themselves that they could change, but they believed that God could help them change themselves.
So I think that religion is to help you build your faith, not on yourself but God. Once you have faith, you can control yourself and behavior in the right way. To some extend, it is good for some people. So those don’t believe in God, you shouldn’t look down on those who believe in God. God to them is what Confucius to us. They all teach us the right way to behavior in life. So even though you don’t believe in God, but why not accept Christian?
