Is Christianity a religion or a relationship?
I say it is a relationship. What about you?

I love this question!!!!
Christianity IS a Relationship with our Father & Jesus Christ. Christianity the religion is man made and isn't what God intended for us. Religion makes us shut up, do as we are told and listen like we are back in school. So many people know nothing about what a Christian is and think that it is a religion when in fact it is an intimate relationship with our Loving Father, In heaven. True Christianity is when God comes and finds us and rescues us, Because we were unable to find Him in our own strength.

Actually it is realtionship but can included religion in the biblical sense of the word only:
Jas 1:27 Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world. |

I am going to be different. I can do nothing without Him. All I am is by His guidance and I need Him daily.
I guess I'm not a good Christian. Peace and blessings, Joyce
