Faith is what you believe in and have a "sense" that it sits squarely with you.
Religion is however you act out your worship of God; which denomination fits the most closely to how you think is the correct way to worship Him.
Some Christians think you MUST be baptised by immersion.
Some Christians think you MUST be able to speak in tongues.
Some Christians think you MUST follow a certain code of ethics.
Some Christians are so liberal you can't separate what they believe is right from what non-Christians believe is right.
I believe a person must find the "religious" practices they most closely feel right about and go for it.....because:
The Bible says all Christians are a different part of the body of Chirst. The hands, the feet, the eyes, the ears.....we all serve a very different and very important purpose.
Hope this helps.

heb11:1Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. 2For by it the elders obtained a good report. 3Through faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that things which are seen were not made of things which do appear.
James1:27Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world.
These are actual scriptures. Faith and religion have totally different meanings, but to say if I believed in things I have not seen, such as God, so that I trusted and followed his sayings, I would keep his law and give to the orphans and widows.
God Bless All men have not faith and faith is a gift.

Faith and religion are one and the same thing. Faith denotes that you totally accept whatever is said in a particular religion, about God, about universe, etc.

Faith is the assured expectation of things hoped for. The evident demonstration of realities though not beheld.
Religion is a strong belief in a supernatural power or an institution to express belief in a divine power.

Faith is believing. Religion is different denominations that believe differently. Faith is better. God dislikes religion

Faith is belief that does not rest on logical proof or material evidence. Religion is a cause, principle, or activity pursued with zeal or conscientious devotion.
