“Salvation is through a person, not a church.”

Gonna need a quote for this.

6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." (John 14:6)

The apostle Paul even says we are baptized "into Christ"...a person...(Romans 6:3) -- not so much baptized into a church...though 1 Cor. 12:13 does say we baptized so as to form one body.

Already gave it. Acts 4:12.

Try reading my posts next time before you ask for something that is already posted.

.Mat 11:28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.
Mat 11:29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.
Mat 11:30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.

It's sad to see there are so many who think there's a back door to heaven...

For those of us who the 'book' is the final authority, there's no doubt whatsoever that salvation is thru the person of Jesus Christ, alone...

Those who refuse to acknowledge that don't spend much or any time with God in his scriptures...
