This is bad theology. It is also an argument of semantics. Christianity is a religion.

I prefer this video, which was a response to the one you posted.

nty to religion

I have a faith in my Lord Jesus Christ. I don't live by some set of rules, but follow them out of love of my Lord.

Religion is a word that means,"I don't really believe in God I just live by these rules and commands."

If you truely believed in God you wouldn't call it a religion. Because how many religions are out there? Christianity isn't another religion, it's a faith, A love.

Please tell me the difference between a "faith" and a "religion".

You say there aren't any rules.. well.. there are. The apostles set rules on how to worship, why to worship, and the leadership within a church. All of that to me sounds like the basic make-up of a "religion".

God does not favor Religion, Man, or Neutral , itself.

God will crush Nations for the ones he loves. If an entire Nation crushes others. God will wipe them out in a second if he so chooses.
Nuclear Bombs.

He will see ur whole life heart and beliefs in 1 second.

He will stand in ur core when no one has in ur entire life.

He can mimick u better u mimick urself

I consider myself a follower of Jesus Christ, I am not bound by religion.

Modernized religion is not what Jesus wanted, it's not about being ritualistic. Today instead of realizing how big of a blessing and how joyous it should be to be a Christian (those who are saved), we act like it's a burden to be set apart of this world and not indulge in worldly things...
