An Unfair Advantage?

The Jews had a tremendous advantage over the rest of the world because they were born into the religious system that God had set up. The problem is that if it is merely a system and it does not reach the heart, it becomes a curse, not a blessing. In the same way, being born into a Christian home can be just as much a blessing or just as much a curse. God did not want a system of religion with people merely following rules outwardly; He wants children who love Him and follow Him from the heart.
