http://evolutionfacts.blogspot.com/#the_message_that_we_were_born_to_hear Christianity is relationship not a religion. In religion humanity seeks God, Christianity inverts the process: as a loving Father, God reaches for humanity. There are six degrees of separation between Christianity and religion. 1)God is Father. 2)Christ is Savior 3)Grace brings redemption. 4)The world is our mission field. 5)Christ gives eternal life. 6)Christ literally conquered death. Thanks to Dr Ergun Caner of Liberty University for the crux of argument presented in this video. Do you feel his gentle call on your life today? http://www.libertyinjesus.com/ I keep getting questions about this verse : "Religion that is pure and undefiled before God, the Father, is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained from the world." (James 1:27) I think the word religion in context might be better understood as "worship". Clearly "unstained" or "unblemished" is a word play to Jesus as the passover lamb. "To visit widows..." is something the Pharisees would do to look pious but they utterly failed at "keeping oneself spotless" or "unblemished" ( i.e. the passover lamb ). Don't we all? Can you keep yourself unblemished ??? - Now that is a religious idea -- if so why do you need Jesus? You cant do it - you can not keep yourself unblemished from the world; only Jesus accomplished that. I believe the "unstained" remark points directly to Jesus - who was the only one who has ever kept himself unstained by the world". James is making the same point as my video.
