Religion includes everything related to Christ, or done on behalf of Christ that lacks the living presence of Christ Himself. Christ carried out His earthly ministry entirely outside of religion. The early followers of Christ also lived a vibrant Christian life apart from religion. The apostles charged the early churches to pursue Christ Himself rather than scriptural knowledge or outward observances. Even today Christ is calling His seekers away from doctrines, creeds, regulations, and all other forms of religiona living and personal relationship with Him.
