Introduction
         Do not follow trends and fashions, because of the following reasons:
  1. Majority of the people are ignorant of the truth about God and life.

  2. Most of the people are below the spiritual level of 20%. That means that they are spiritually blind. They are not spiritually awake, enlightened and experienced. They cannot take wise and enlightened decisions.

  3. Out of ignorance, majority are following the ways of the world, popular trends and fashions.

  4. Satan introduces all kinds of trends and fashions in order to deceive people into the hell fire.

  5. Generally, people are spiritually indolent (lazy). They are not making necessary spiritual efforts to seek and know the truth.

  6. People look at the outside, and are deceived by the physical appearances, while God looks at the heart and in spirit.

  7. Many people engage in paganism, in one way or the other, even without knowing it. The worst is that they feel and say “It doesn’t matter”, whereas paganism leads to hell fire. Many families and individuals have people who represent them in pagan festivals and activities. This is very bad and unacceptable.

  8. Most of the public and religious leaders are spiritually blind. Therefore, they cannot, and do not, provide good leadership. Many office holders are corrupt.

  9. The civil and religious leaders are hindering the spiritual development of humanity, without people knowing that such a terrible thing is happening.

    13 "But woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you shut up the kingdom of heaven against men; for you neither go in yourselves, nor do you allow those who are entering to go in. Matthew 23:13-14

    15 "Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves. Matthew 23:15

  10. Generally, people are selfish, whereas spiritual and heavenly life demands selflessness.

  11. Majority live boisterous life style, always bustling and hustling, which hinder spiritual progress.

    14 “Let them alone . They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, both will fall into a ditch.” Matthew 15:14
