It doesn't matter what you say, as long as that lifestyle is a shared by a large group of people, with similar beliefs and even a figure head they follow. It is classed as a religion.

Yes, I agree, Christianity is a cult not a religion. A cult of people who share similar delusions.

THE REASON WHY CHRISTIANITY IS NOT A RELIGION.

A lot of people say that Christianity is just a religion which is false, Christianity when founded by Jesus Christ our Lord and saviour was not founded to be a religion.
Before I continue with what I have to say, let go back to the creation story ( the beginning of time itself ).
Genesis chapter 1 gives an account of how the earth was created I.e the sun, moon, filament, land, sea, animals, plants, mountains, hills, stars etc.
After all the creation, something was missing, God wanted his image and likeness to be part of his creation, that was why HE said "let us make man in our own image and after our likeness" which led to the creation of man.
The Genesis account also showed us that God established a close relationship with man giving him the task of dominating, replenishing and taking care of the earth. HE created man to live a life of peace, joy, holiness, righteousness, absence of lack and most importantly a close relationship with HIM, Jehovah.
Ironically, the table was turned around when man fell into sin at the garden of Eden ( of course we allow know the story ).
This incident made man lose everything God gave to him, his dominion, joy, peace and most importantly his relationship with his creator.
For years man has been living in sin, shame, darkness. He lost all contact with his creator, man have been under the authority of the devil himself. This was the exact opposite of God's intentions when he created man.
In order to restore man back to himself, God sent HIS only begotten son, Jesus, to die for the sins of the whole world thus redeeming man from destruction.
Jesus came to save and redeem man from the very jaws and pangs of sin and death which has gripped man right from the garden of Eden.
He came to restore man to the life of joy, peace, holiness, righteousness, dominion and most importantly, man's relationship with his creator, Jehovah Himself, which was the original life God wanted man to live.
Jesus came to show man the way to the Father by dying on the cross of calvary for man's sake. He came to restore man back to his former glory in which God created him to live. He didn't come to establish a religion. That's what Christianity is all about.
Christianity is the life that God originally planned for us to live when HE created the man.
Christianity is a lifestyle, a way of life, how we ought to live, God's ordained life and not a religion, philosophy, fact or myth.

BELIEVE IT OR NOT, THAT'S THE TRUTH AND FACT.

#truthandfacts
Thank you saint.
Let me add to what you have said. Christianity is a Kingdom with a King over it.

And, the Lord said, "Let us make man in our image and likeness, and let them dominate the earth.

If the word 'dominate' is dissected, you'd find DOMAIN, in it. A domain is a TERRITORY, A REALM, A REGION, And most of all a KINGDOM. And, only a King rules over a Kingdom.

God made Man King over the earth. Man was to rule the domain of the earth according to the dictates of heaven. The rules that guides heaven was to apply on earth.

The earth was to be an extension of God's reign.


Man was to depend on God for everything.

They had a time when they meet to fellowship.

Man lost that when he declared independence from from his creator.

When Yahweh created the earth for man, He did not give man any rituals to perform. There was no appeasement to do. All those came with the Fall.
God gave Man a Kingdom to rule over, not a religion.
How then did religion came?

Religion came as a result of man looking for ways to get back his Kingdom.

Man's purpose which is Dominance was spoken into his consciousness before even his creation, hence; Man seeks to dominate by all means.

Man did not, till today feel sorry for what his did, rather he wanted to be reinstated to his lost glory, but because his mind and motive wasn't right, he couldn't access the Father. Satan usurping that position, presenting himself as God to man, man believed and is worshipping satan till today.

For man to have any power to do anything, Satan started demanding things from Man. The exact opposite of what God stands for are the things satan began demanding from man.

Satan knew that when man does these things, man will drift further and further from God.

The rituals demanded by satan from man, is what gave rise to RELIGION. satan dispersed his demons across the human race presenting himself as god to them all.

All religions are of the devil.

RELIGION IS MAN'S ATTEMPT TO ACCESS GOD. CHRISTIANITY IS GODS KINGDOM BEING re-established on earth.

Satan who is still doing today exactly what he did to Adam hides and makes man worship him through rituals.

The very first message John the Baptist preached was, Repent for the Kingdom of God is at Hand. The very first message The Master preached was "Repent for the Kingdom of God is at Hand".
Question is, Which Kingdom?

The Answer is, the Kingdom man lost to satan.

What religion did Yahweh give to Adam when he made him?

When Jesus came what was his message about? was it about a kingdom or about a religion?

Christianity is about a King and his Kingdom.

It doesn't matter if you believe it. It doesn't change anything.

Let's first of all understand the concept of Christianity. Who called us Christians? To the best of my Biblical knowledge, there is no documentation of Apostles calling themselves Christians. It is unbelievers that gave the name. Therefore, should we adopt a name given to us by unbelievers as the name of our Religion? the name Christain was a mockery name from Antioch. Until we understand our identity, we would keep having performance problems

Stop complicating issues with incoherent nonsense. If you base your life on the teachings of the bible- a religious text then out would be intellectually dishonest at best and just plain mischievous at worst to claim Christianity isn't a religion

James 1:26-27: "Those who consider themselves religious and yet do not keep a tight rein on their tongues deceive themselves, and their religion is worthless. Religion that God our Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress and to keep oneself from being polluted by the world

Y'all behave like a religion
-You gather for worship like religions
-Your church is exempted from tax because it is a religous institution
-You use your faith as a source of social ritual for purposes such as births, weddings, and funerals.
Not to mention
-Your "relationship" with Christ who is god incarnate is no different to the claim of a Hindus relationship with Krishna who is Vishnu incarnate (spoiler alert:Hinduism is a religion)
-Buddhism also claims not to be a religion. Your claim is even emptier than theirs because
-you worship a supernatural being
-they do not
You have the nerve to go around disrespecting other peoples religions calling turn satanic and what not and you expect people to take you seriously when you keep wailing on how your religion is being ridiculed

Analice107, is Judaism a "religion"?
It is a relationship.

It all started with Abraham. What religion did God give to Abraham, Jacob, to Joseph, to Moses, to Daniel, to David, to Solomon and the rest of them all?


Everyone who has ever walked with Yahweh, has always done that base on a relationship which Yahweh himself established.

God has always come to men, no one has ever looked for God and found Him.
Man looking for God is a religion.

God coming to man is a relationship, because He gives you instructions on what to do and how to do it. The relationship solidifies as you obey.

Religion didn't come from Yahweh.

From Adam to Jesus, God came to Man.

God (Yahweh) doesn't have a religion.

Hopefulandlord, you are bad mouthing your Master the devil thinking you are bad mouthing Yahweh.

All I see here is a desperation for Christianity to distance itself as much as possible from religion and failing woefully at it

even they're not believing this gibberish

I have some sympathy for people who don't want to identify themselves with the horrible things religion has done, but can't let go of their own religion.

Christianity started out in Palestine as a fellowship; it moved to Greece an became a philosophy; it moved to Italy and became an institution; it moved to Europe and became a culture; it came to America and became an enterprise and it spread everywhere and became a relationship
