Catholics want it MORE COMPLEX ... I know ... LOL ...

Salvation is simple, though ...

Romans 10 ...

8 But what does it say? “The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart” (that is, the word of faith which we preach):

9 that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead, you will be saved.

10 For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.

11 For the Scripture says, “Whoever believes on Him will not be put to shame.”

12 For there is no distinction between Jew and Greek, for the same Lord over all is rich to all who call upon Him.

13 For “whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.”

Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and YOU WILL FIND REST FOR YOUR SOULS. "For My yoke is easy and My burden is light." (Matthew 11:28-30)

The amazing ‘grace’ of God is one of the simplest yet hardest to grasp concepts of the Christian faith.

But whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst, but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. Jn. 4:14

Jesus stood and cried out, saying,... If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink. He who ‘believes’ on Me,... as the Scripture has said,... “Out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.” Jn. 7:37- 38

Simplistic rot!

So simplistic that the really astute can miss the Truth in it. In Jeremiah, God told us that He would give us a New Covenant where He would forgive our wickedness and recognize our sins no more. Are you calling God simplistic and a rotten liar?
