Many people today think they are Christians because they keep religious traditions that God has never prescribed. The only way to truly please God is through saving faith.
We go on to discuss enlightenment. In Ephesians 5 Paul tells us that we were once in darkness but now are light in the Lord.

We cannot go searching in the darkness to find enlightenment from God. We have been called out of darkness and need to “walk as children of Light” (Ephesians 5:8b).
