No it is not (assuming we limit things to the new covenant).

Welp, the bible isn't limited to the New Covenant though. But, the New Covenant does have several methods of salvation.

Here's one of Jesus' methods.......

Joh 6:54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

It's a salvation buffet!! Just eat what you like, leave the rest.

It seems that what you advocate. Pick out one component of the plan and harp on that one thing as the ONLY part of salvation. I doubt very seriously that you believe that a sinner can "eat my flesh and drink my blood" (communion) and be saved by doing that and nothing else.

If Jesus was truthful, one can....

Joh 6:54 Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.

Oh YES! Jesus was truthful. It's you that I wonder about. :D

If you eat His flesh, drink His blood, He said plainly that person has eternal life.

So.

Jesus also said in MK 16:16 "he that believeth and is baptized shall be saved".

Yes, and Peter said baptism saves.

Like I said, it's a cafeteria approach to salvation. Pick and choose that you wish to eat.
