RELIGION IS POISON !! Forgive me . . . no disrespect . . . Please . . .Open your MInd !!
 
Before we explore the difference between religion and spirituality, we must first define the two terms. Religion can be defined as “belief in God or gods to be worshipped, usually expressed in conduct and ritual” or “any specific system of belief, worship, etc., often involving a code of ethics.” Spirituality can be defined as “the quality or fact of being spiritual, non-physical” or “predominantly spiritual character as shown in thought, life, etc.; spiritual tendency or tone.” To put it briefly, religion is a set of beliefs and rituals that claim to get a person in a right relationship with God, and spirituality is a focus on spiritual things and the spiritual world instead of physical/earthly things.

The most common misconception about religion is that Christianity is just another religion like Islam, Judaism, Hinduism, etc. Sadly, many who claim to be adherents of Christianity do practice Christianity as if it were a religion. To many, Christianity is nothing more than a set of rules and rituals that a person has to observe in order to go to heaven after death. That is not true Christianity. True Christianity is not a religion; rather, it is having a right relationship with God by receiving Jesus Christ as the Savior-Messiah, by grace through faith. Yes, Christianity does have “rituals” to observe (e.g., baptism and communion). Yes, Christianity does have “rules” to follow (e.g., do not murder, love one another, etc.). However, these rituals and rules are not the essence of Christianity. The rituals and rules of Christianity are the result of salvation. When we receive salvation through Jesus Christ, we are baptized as a proclamation of that faith. We observe communion in remembrance of Christ’s sacrifice. We follow a list of do’s and don’ts out of love for God and gratitude for what He has done.

The most common misconception about spirituality is that there are many forms of spirituality, and all are equally valid. Meditating in unusual physical positions, communing with nature, seeking conversation with the spirit world, etc., may seem to be “spiritual,” but they are in fact false spirituality. True spirituality is possessing the Holy Spirit of God as a result of receiving salvation through Jesus Christ. True spirituality is the fruit that the Holy Spirit produces in a person’s life: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control (Galatians 5:22-23). Spirituality is all about becoming more like God, who is spirit (John 4:24) and having our character conformed to His image (Romans 12:1-2).

What religion and spirituality have in common is that they both can be false methods of having a relationship with God. Religion tends to substitute the heartless observance of rituals for a genuine relationship with God. Spirituality tends to substitute connection with the spirit world for a genuine relationship with God. Both can be, and often are, false paths to God. At the same time, religion can be valuable in the sense that it points to the fact that there is a God and that we are somehow accountable to Him. The only true value of religion is its ability to point out that we have fallen short and are in need of a Savior. Spirituality can be valuable in that it points out that the physical world is not all there is. Human beings are not only material, but also possess a soul-spirit. There is a spiritual world around us of which we should be aware. The true value of spirituality is that it points to the fact that there is something and someone beyond this physical world to which we need to connect.

Jesus Christ is the fulfillment of both religion and spirituality. Jesus is the One to whom we are accountable and to whom true religion points. Jesus is the One to whom we need to connect and the One to whom true spirituality points. Are you interested in discovering true religion and true spirituality? If the answer is yes, please begin your journey on our webpage that describes receiving Jesus Christ as your Personal Savior - http://www.gotquestions.org/personal-Savior.html.

It is not my site but our site to discuss faith and religions even ours so tinitignan natin dito yung turo ng Bibliya at kung sinusunod ba ito ng mga religions na tinukoy.

Kaya nga makikilala natin sila by exposing them and their teachings and that site is dedicated for both Christian and other sect who are seeking for the truth and nothing BUT THE TRUTH!
 
Parurusahan ba ng diyos yung mga muslim,hinduist at buddhist na gumagawa ng kabutihan sa kapwa, dahil sa "false religion" na sinasabi sa site sir?

one question, do you have any idea about what those "FALSE RELIGION" teach to their people?.
 
@Ball

Sadly they rejected Christ and the truth...

Hindi naman basehan yung katwiran nila dahil mas marami pa ring kasalanan ang tao.

What matters here is bakit sila nagbulagbulagan... although not all.
 
Tanong ko lang sir ts ano ba ibig sabihin ng "religion"?

Nabasa ko lang sa BBC site, permission to post sir ts.

"Religion can be explained as a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a superhuman agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs."

Well answered, but let me share to readers a quote from a forum of the teachings of Catechism of the Catholic Church

"The Catechism of the Catholic Church, paragraphs 846-848, "Outside the Church there is no salvation", talks about the possibility of salvation for non-Catholics who, through no fault of their own, do not know Jesus Christ or His Catholic Church but seek God with a sincere heart try in their actions to do God's will as they know it through the dictates of their conscience."

This seems to be in line with St. Peter's words in Acts 10:35:
"but in every nation any one who fears him [God] and does what is right is acceptable to him."

Yung word sir na religion ibig kung sabihin, hindi yung ginagawa o definition. Yung napakasimple, concise specific and direct to the point maybe.
 
Pagsasabuhay/pagpapahayag ng paniniwala

Ex: Love is my religion; Islam is my Religion; Without criticizing religion, there would have been no religious reformation

basahin mo yung previous post ko about the Spirituality and Religion.
 
2. Acts 1:21-22New International Version (NIV)

21 Therefore it is necessary to choose one of the men who have been with us the whole time the Lord Jesus was living among us, 22 beginning from John’s baptism to the time when Jesus was taken up from us. For one of these must become a witness with us of his resurrection.”

You say

Bible

- The Apostles had no Successor, for to Succeed them one needed to be a witness of Christ's Resurrection (Acts 1:21, 22)
 
Tama ang sinasabi ng Bibliya. Kung ano man ang sarili mong interpretasyon about sa verses tignan mo kung ito ba ay umaayon sa Salita ng Diyos dahil hindi kokontrahin ng Diyos ang Salita Niya at ito ang Katotohanan.
 
Iniisip ko lang kasi na kung wala na susunod sa mga apostoles, putol na pangangaral dapat. Eh matagal ng patay ang mga ito.
 
Bakit ano bang tingin mo sa mga simpleng miyembro at tagapakinig sa simbahan hindi mga tagasunod ni Kristo? referring to the true believers of Christ.

Si Pedro, Juan o Pablo ay mga tagasunod ni Kristo at si Kristo ang ulo ng Iglesia o ang katawan ni Kristo kung saan Siya ay higit wala ng iba pa.
 
Ang pinag uusapan dito ayung mga pinili ng Diyos.

Ganito yan bawat mananampalataya may kanya kanyang tungkulin sa ministeryo hindi lang ang Apostol, ang Ebanghelista o ang mangangawa sa simbahan kundi lahat ay kabahagi sa gawain ng Panginoon.
