Everyone has a religion, even Christians have a religion. Religion can be good or bad, true or false.
Do not be afraid of the word, "religion." It simply means, "A system of beliefs in a (S)supreme (B)being, and the form of worship and service rendered to that (B)being."
EVERY RELIGION, OTHER THAN CHRISTIANITY, IS IDOLATRY
Idolatry is the worship and service of idols, whether sentient beings or philosophies or inanimate objects.
VARIOUS FORMS OF IDOLATRY
VARIOUS FORMS OF IDOLATRY
(which we encounter today.
* Naturalism is trusting, worshiping and serving NATURE.

* Paganism and Heathenism is trusting, worshiping and serving NATURE and the GODS OF NATURE.
* Hedonism is trusting, worshiping and serving PLEASURE and SELF INDULGENCE.
* Materialism is trusting, worshiping and serving WEALTH or GREED.
* Statism is trusting, worshiping and serving THE STATE.
* Satanism and Spiritism is trusting, worshiping and serving THE DEVIL and EVIL SPIRITS.
* Spiritualism is trusting, worshiping and serving supposed DISEMBODIED HUMAN SPIRITS.
There Are Other Forms Also
Christianity is also a religion, but it is the religion of truth. There are people who claim to be Christians or they claim to follow Christianity, but they are still in their sins and separated from God. This is because they have accepted Christianity in their heads and as a moral principle, but they have not believed in their hearts that Jesus is Lord and that He is raised from the dead, and they are not in a living and loving relationship with God, through Christ.
Those who have believed, repented, confessed and are now following Jesus have salvation, which is a right relationship with God. Our right relationship with God is not based on our good works, but a right relationship with God is shown in our good works, in our love for God and others.
My religion is Christianity.
Christianity is the only religion that points to salvation.
All other religions are human endeavors to reject the true and living God.
