....The fact that there is a difference between Spirit-filled worship, between letting Christ live His life out in you, and ritualistic and religious ceremonialism, is actually a revelation given by the Spirit to many, many Christians outside of LSM...
I've heard Dr. Charles Stanley say it, I've heard Perry F. Rockwood say it, I've even read it on Tee-shirts sold at our local "The Light" Christian bookstore. "Christianity is NOT a Religion!" they proudly proclaim; and the back of that tee-shirt then details exactly what Christianity, and being a Christian, really is. I remember I wanted to buy it for a brother who was convinced that there was nothing worth finding in Christianity at all... figured it would blow his socks off.
That said, I can understand how someone calling for the "death of religion" could be construed as a hostile attack on faith in general. I know it wasn't meant that way, but I agree that caution should be used, "but so that we may not offend them,".... It's better to have a millstone tied around your neck and to be cast into the sea than to stumble one of the little ones.
From "Christ in you ministries", here is an article to enjoy on this topic.
