That's not what Christianity is about.

It's about accepting the gift of eternal life through the blood of Jesus Christ who sacrificed Himself for our sins.

All other religions are work-based, Christianity is the only one that requires you to believe in the God of the Bible and what He did for you. It's about having a personal relationship with Christ. You need to be born again, of the spirit and not the flesh.

You can't earn your way to heaven, we are all sinners.

>I can have a relationship with the Lord and ignore all his commands and sin all the time
So when did you start going to church? Last week?

>>2028918
Works are a result of a saved person, not the other way around. Once you know Christ you will naturally bring forth fruit.

And no, "once saved always saved" does not give you a license to sin. You'd be fighting against your conscience and dimming the holy spirit's guidance.

Shhh he's protestant.

Naturalism + mysticism

>>2028885
>Have success on earth

Yeah, that's nice, but not the point, and potentially obstructive to entering the Kingdom of God. Living an intensely Christian life is not the easy path to wealth and material comfort, and it sure as hell wasn't for the apostles (or the early Church, for that matter).

>>2028873
Buddhism in its philosophical, non-mystical traditions, obviously. There is no other religion that comes close to Buddhism in its potential universality for identifying practical earthly action and the relationship of this action with spiritual and virtual self-completion. Don't listen to these tunnel-visioned theists and their slavish, obsessive worship of human constructs -- or do, if you have reasoned it to be skillful action.
