But these things aren't what save us.
For me, it's about where the emphasis is placed.
I would never want to lead anyone into a performance based religion.
Neither would I want to lead anyone into a place where they would feel satisfied to confess, repent and not go on to be baptized in the Name of Jesus, and not go on to seek and experience the infilling of the Holy Ghost.

Yet it is very much a performance based religion.... endurance IS performance! Mercy and Grace doesn't negate performance. Jesus clearly teaches judgment by deeds unto eternal life which is faithfulness.
