In Christianity neither morality nor religion come into contact with reality at any point.

About This Quote

According to the Christian faith, God is the supreme judge of our behavior. The Bible states that we are judged for our actions, and it also states that God will reward us for our good actions and punish us for our bad ones. The Bible says that we are responsible for our actions, but it does not say what those actions are. How do you act in the eyes of God? Are you honest? Are you kind? Are you loving? Are you honest about your sins? Those are questions that only God can answer. We cannot judge ourselves because if we do, then we start judging others.
