Religions fail us every time. I follow no one but Christ, for the simple reason, that my faith stems from him, not man. Christian just means follower of Christ, not some religion, which is as He meant it to be. Religion didn’t die on the cross to pay for our sins. Jesus did. It is not about religion. It is about a relationship with Jesus.
The determining factor of one's authentic faith relationship with God is not one's denomination, religious practice or performance in Christian disciplines, but rather the presence of the indwelling Spirit of Christ, upon confession of faith. As it is written, “if anyone does not have the Spirit of Christ, he does not belong to Him. (Rom.8:9)
