How do you figure it's semantics?

Religion is a form of godliness where you follow rites, dogma, rules, and ceremony and think this brings about salvation.

Faith and a personal relationship with God is what Christianity, the kind that Jesus actually preached, is.

that is one of the more irksome things when faith is discussed. how easily people conflate religion and faith, which are two differen things entirely. It is possible and quite easy to be 'religious' and not be saved.
