watchmanF said:Religious christians think that belasue their ''religion'' is cistianity they are saved. They have beliefs like, because their mother was a christian then they are, or because they were baptized or attend church they are a christian or because they are American they are a christian. This is religion ot relationship.
Now I am in agreement with this. There are many, of all denominations who are like this. I knew a pastor once, who gave up his ministry because he came to realize that, even though he was raised in a Christian home, baptized as a teen, and went through seminary, he wasn't saved.
But, as Francisdesales pointed out it can also happen that someone who decides that they have no need of the Body of Christ or "church" (not a biblical point-of-view) can also be steeped in fallacious beliefs rather than standing upon solid faith.
