I believe they go hand in hand in the sense that if you love God, you will keep His commands. You will study to know scripture and apply it. Religion alone is bad, but religion with God is good.

there is a verse where Jesus says that He is the way the truth and the life and that no one comes to the Father but by Him.In my opinion religion is a way to God so i would say that in christianity the only religion is Jesus as He is the way. So Godly living by letting 'religion' (=Jesus) live in you is what we have been called to be.



Yet again what would differentiate christianity and any other religion?

It is my opinion God is first, but it is the communion of the saints that supports us in our walk with God. There is nothing better than a sister in Christ coming up to me and asking me what i am read in the bible, and what i have been learning in my devotions. It is also great when i am going through what i feel is a "valley of death" i know God is with me but it is awesome to have a brother or sister in Christ call me and pray with me.



So God is first and fellowship of the saints is next. I hope that is what you mean by religion.



Welcome to the forum by the way.

If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one�s religion is useless. Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world. -James 1:26-27



The Scripture(Christian Bible) testifies that religion is not always bad and that it can, in fact, be good. I go with religion AND God.:glow:
