Faith is our relationship with God. It is what we believe and see. Think of every thought and opinion your mind contains that pertains to God. That is your faith. Religion is mans interpretation of what gods will is. It seeks to guide you to what its makers believe to be the right path. Religion seeks to control faith, but heres the flaw. Faith is given be God where religion is given by man. Would you put your trust in man over God? No you wouldn't. So be careful. Men are not perfect. Only God is flawless so what is given by him will always be true. Learn to differentiate between the faith of God and the religion of men. Remember, religion can disable faith, but faith exists to keep religion in check.
Remember to read your Bible, it is a guidebook. Especially the gospels (Matthew, mark, Luke,john ) never take the teachings of a church or any man over the word of God. Let God's word have the last say in everything you do. Remember, the word is essential to live a true Christian life. It is your greatest teacher.
