Religion/ Religiosity cannot save. Man cannot save himself no matter how hard he tries. Sin enslaves and the only way a slave can be rescued from captivity is when a stronger hand or Saviour comes to the rescue. This is what Jesus came to do for mankind and those who believe in Him. Religion arises when man puts himself at the center of affairs and tries to save himself from the slavery of sin. Hence arises all forms of religious activities that have no impact on the soul or spirit of man. Just a bunch of activities that keep the mind engaged but leave the body trapped. One can travel from here to mecca, hit his/her head on the ground five times a day, give alms in the public eye or have multiple night "vigils" but if Christ Jesus is not Lord over that life, it will not produce fruits of righteousness. Salvation is in one name only; Jesus Christ. Acts 4 v10-12 "then know this, you and all the people of Israel: It is by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified but whom God raised from the dead, that this man stands before you healed. Jesus is β βthe stone you builders rejected, which has become the cornerstone.β Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.β 1 Like |

Sheenor: Religiosity and spirituality are different. By their fruits you shall know them. Many people carry the name but few actually practice the tenets of Christianity. |

Lol, 2 people confused Jew ....am talking of the living....the population of the Jewish state of is real is 10million and 70% are Jews, 27% Muslims and 1% Christians with 2% other religions.....My point is, the Jews themselves from which the religion originated don't even practice Christianity but we Africa s throw away our own religions and enslaved ourselves with the religion of our colonial masters |

Isreal is a Jewish state...and judaism is there religion, a Jew has more chances of becoming a mulsim then ever becoming a Christian......Africans need to dumb this foreign religions used to colonize us and concentrate on our own African religion |

Christianity doesn't force people into it. Thats why the Jews can afford for now to stay on another path. Unlike that of arab origin. |
