Lifestyle

1 Corinthians 13:4, "Examine yourselves as to whether you are in the faith. Test yourselves. Do you not know yourselves, that Jesus Christ is in you?-- unless indeed you are disqualified." This verse is a warning to Christians who adopt a lifestyle that us not consistent with God's Word. Anyone who claims to be a Christian and does not live according to God's Word needs to make a spiritual pit stop and check their heart.

Saved,

Ceremonies and rituals cannot save a person, only Jesus can save us. Observing traditions of whatever sort cannot save anyone, only the blood of Christ can do that, and being transformed into His likeness can only be hindered by such things, for only personal relationship between the Master and His disciple can transform a person.
