Religion vs. Christianity: What’s the difference?

[Lovely Charm]

I was wondering why you don't consider yourself a sinner? meaning every thought, every actions, every intentions u have is pure and good?

I agree w/ homo, & of couirse the bible storey shoudnt be taken literally,
I would like to think that "WE are servants of sins or of goodness" not sinner per se,
our job here is to make the proper choice, we err of course since thats part of our ignorance, & if their is an original sin-that would be ignorance

How can you say though bro that Christianity is not a religion? Doesn't our faith have a set of doctrines and practices? I think we can also understand religion to mean a belief system that has a set of answers to the ultimate questions in life, like where did we come from, what is the meaning and purpose of our lives, and where are we going, etc. Based on that definition Christianity, whether Protestant, Catholic or what have you, is a religion.

What I mean bro. Christianity is more than a religion that world understands it, it's about fellowship in the Lord Jesus Christ (a relationship) with the living God. A true religion is designed by God(The bible is not silent about it) not by people for people also.

People today are claiming that they are Christians, but they worship many gods and idols(which is an abomination to God), because one of the attribute of the living God is, He is a jealous God! If you will read the old testament, God punished the Israelite for worshiping images and idols, and look what's happening in our society? The name Christianity was corrupted by Satan to deceive many, thinking that religion is the way to God. The truth is there's no man made way to reach God!

Only God reach out to man, through the blood of our Lord Jesus Christ, that whosoever believes in Him will not perish on the day when God will pour His wrath and judgment on earth.

God made a way(the only way) through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Surrender your life to Christ! Believe in Jesus Christ

Ill give my opinion on this..

The BIG BIG BIG difference is People believe in interpretation of the so-called TRUTH. Mao na ang problema sa DOCTRINE og KULTO. People do something outside the scope to prove he/they are right. This is acceptable in SCIENCE but not in RELIGION. In RELIGION its not about YOU its about GOD. So forget your contribution...

The truth is Christ.

We can explain Christianity in different ways. I rather not mentioned and contrast it with other religion. We must be friendly.

of course, because christianity is not exclusive. That is why, some religion are derived from it.
