What does the Bible say about the folly of religion?

Answered in 1 source

The Bible teaches that mere religion without true faith is folly and an abomination to God.

In Isaiah 66, the prophet highlights the folly of formal religion that lacks genuine faith and obedience. This folly is seen in the actions of those who follow rituals without understanding their significance. God expresses His contempt for such religion, stating that the heavenly throne cannot be contained by man-made structures. True worship comes from a heart that acknowledges God's sovereignty and grace, rather than self-righteous acts performed for approval.
Scripture References: Isaiah 66:3-4, Luke 16:15
