Many times answering the questions about religion or Christianity has to do with definitions and connotations. I'm just not into bumper sticker sayings. Perhaps people want to distance themselves from what they perceive to be a negative.
At this point in my life, I can't give a short answer.
I believe that we are created and there is one God. We, as humans, have turned away and became separated from God and this causes an emptiness inside us because we were created to commune with him so He made a way for us to be healed and come back to Him through giving us Jesus Christ. It's through Jesus' death and resurrection that we are restored and made whole.
I don't attend a weekly organized meeting at this point and I tend to say I'm spiritual instead of religious, I don't identify as a Christian by name even though I am a follower of Christ, I just say I'm a follower of the way or the path of Jesus.
Somewhere to someone I'm a heretic, backslider, lukewarm.....whatever label is convenient.
