How is Christianity not a religion? I don’t understand why religion has such a bad connotation these days. False religions are bad. True religions are good.
Most religions are man-centered in that they believe human works can achieve salvation or advancement. Christianity is a relationship God has established with His children based on the finished work of Jesus Christ on the cross. No human effort can replace or improve upon that. A better explanation is here:

The link you sent admits Christianity fits the definition of a religion but just talks about how it’s better than other religions… yeah, obviously, because it’s the only one that’s true. I’m a Christian too, my problem is with this weird assumption that religions are intrinsically false. Going along with that assumption and jumping through hoops about it is weird. Do religious freedoms not apply to Christians? It’s just simpler to say that Christianity is the one true religion.
Pretty damned accurate observation.
Agree, considering Christianity is not a religion. Unless one perverts it.
