Guiding new believers onto the path of truth while promoting daily Bible study for long-term spiritual growth at https://boardofthelord.blog - Baby Christians need to avoid the rampant apostate pitfalls plaguing the Church today. Inform yourself with your own study Bible.
The short answer is no. Religion will not save you.
Religion is harmful because it allows evil people to impersonate the righteous Christian and thus hinder the revelation of Jesus. The Jesus-hating crowd loves to pile on their ignorant lies and use these instances to do more evil.
Religion without a genuine relationship with God in our churches explain the rising trajectory of apostasy. But those people aren’t saved.
Salvation is possible only through divine grace. This might sound strange with so many apostate churches teaching that being good will get you to Heaven. It won’t. The Bible clearly says that this is false teaching.
Going to Heaven requires a personal relationship with Jesus, and He plays second fiddle to nothing in your life. So be aware that displaying the following 7 “evidences of faith” doesn’t mean the person has a relationship with Jesus.

Jesus displays no ego and loves us without emotion. That makes Him “like the best dude ever!”
The Lord’s Prayer is what I would consider to be our template for daily living and also the example Jesus set for us in how He lived His life. He commanded us to follow Him.
You can read it in Matthew 6:9-13.

To Be “Caught Up”!The definitions below show how we get to rapture since the actual word isn’t in the Bible. It is a simple translation from Greek to English. The word “Bible” isn’t in the Bible either.
- Greek: harpazo – to snatch or take away
- Latin: rapturo – to be caught up
- English: rapture – being carried away
30% of the Bible is prophetic and Scripture tells us what is about to go down. It’s a shame that so many simple bible churches have disappeared. We could really use more book-by-book and verse-by-verse preachers, but deception is the game and Lucifer is his name.

The Bible says in 1 John 5:13 to you that have received Jesus as your savior, “I have written these things to you that you may know that you have eternal life.” Yet we still doubt this is true at times.

The Bible is God's written revelation to man. The Bible writers weren't inspired. The word of God is. Dive in with me and I'll tell you about it.

Being a Christian essentially means that you are a follower of Jesus. He is the Christ. He is the image, icon, and physical manifestation of God. He is God. PERIOD.

Welcome New Christian. These are my findings as I set out to answer the one question that all believers of truth should ask.
What is Christianity according to the Bible?
It's time for true followers of Jesus to get a firm grip on our beliefs as given to us in God's word so that we are able to avoid the rampant apostate teachings that are bombarding us. We're in the age of mass deception, and you cannot afford to be blinded by lies.
