I’ve come to the conclusion, from talking to my non-Christian friends, that the major hang up in our society against God is the Biblical principal of submission. Our society teaches us to fight and never give up and to trust our own judgements in all things. We are encouraged to plan our own lives, make our own decisions and value our own feelings. Many people have a difficult time with the concept that there may be something or someone that knows the answers. They have a problem with letting go of the hard work they’ve put into getting more money and running their own lives and just can’t except that there is a better way. The idea of surrendering the self in our society is so closly linked to slavery that even with the reassurances of a kind and loving God, people just can’t accept that embracing ideals and the love of a supreme being isn’t demeaning, it’s liberating. Hope this helps.
