Religion and Faith.

This may sound silly and elementary but perhaps some of you all here might give me your take on the difference between being Religious and truly having faith in Christ ?
I'm sure we can all agree that one can be religious and not be a True Christian. I'd like to hear from others on this matter.

Re: Religion and Faith.

Defining religion would be a good place to start.

James 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 don't see how you can be Christian and not religious!

Re: Religion and Faith.
