Is it about the religion or the relationship?

Christianity

People confuse being religious and having a relationship with God.just because you go to church every Sunday and serve at church means you have a good relationship with God. There is a big difference between religion and relationship.

Religion is about rules and regulations that should be followed for a certain religion it could be dressing in a certain way,talking in a certain way,eating certain food,going to Church every Sunday,practicing the 10 commandments.

In relationships and friendships people communicate with each other this is how our relationship with God should be. We build a relationship with God by reading his word through the bible,praying and fasting.

This is how we connect with God and also listen to him when he speaks with us .prayer is a form of communication with God.there's no relationship without communication same with God there's no relationship without prayer.

Christianity is about having a relationship with God and his son Jesus Christ and believing in him and outing our trust in him. But obeying to those rules and doesn't also mean we have a relationship with God.if we obey to the religion rules question is  do you have a relationship with God?

Do you ever spend time with God and pray worship him and read the word of God  and listen to him and what his word says?having a relationship with God is about communicating with him through the prayer, and listening to him when he speaks.
