Nope! The “way to go” is through faith in Jesus Christ who is THE way the truth and the life. If you really were sticking with Jesus and his way you would never have just gotten done claiming people are saved by their own works of righteousness.

My faith is in Christ not any church. In fact...all those who follow him are his church - his called out ones. Forget about trusting others to save you - including yourself - and trust in what Jesus has done for you. Not by works of righteousness which we have done but according to his mercy he saved us.

Amen!

Hebrews 4:10 "For he that is entered into his rest, he also hath ceased from his own works, as God did from his"

If you REALLY have faith in Jesus Christ, why then, do you doubt the path that He laid out for us......it's plain and clear, and has been for over 2,000 years, that He designed, instituted, guided, protected His church through many periods of tribulation.....and that includes the protestant {note the word} revolution.....You can't just decide...after 1,600 years of Christianity, that they have been doing it all wrong and that you can make up your own rules....it CAN'T POSSIBLY work that way....In our little town of 20,000 there are probably 20 different "denominations" all of which assume they are the right way....they aren't; and the Catholic church is still, and has always been the ONE, HOLY, CATHOLIC, AND APOSTOLIC church founded by Christ. You don't get to make up your own rules when it comes to being an American and you don't get to make up your own rules when it comes to being a Christian....
