This lesson from Romans 2:25–28 confronts the emptiness of relying on religious rituals—like circumcision—as a substitute for genuine faith. Paul explains that outward acts have no value without inward obedience and a transformed heart. Using Genesis 3 as a foundation, the lesson compares manmade religion to fig leaves—symbolic efforts to cover guilt, avoid accountability, and impress others without true godliness. True righteousness comes not from external signs but from inner devotion to God. The lesson challenges believers to reject superficial religion and embrace a sincere, obedient relationship with Christ.
