The Bible way

Lutero

I'd rather do it the Bible way-not man's way.

If that were true, you would be Catholic.

We are saved by grace (of God) through faith, not of works, Eph. 2:8-9.

Sure, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Spirit which is Baptism:
2020 Justification has been merited for us by the Passion of Christ. It is granted us through Baptism. It conforms us to the righteousness of God, who justifies us. It has for its goal the glory of God and of Christ, and the gift of eternal life. It is the most excellent work of God's mercy.

Titus 3:5
Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

1 Peter 3:21
The like figure whereunto even baptism doth also now save us (not the putting away of the filth of the flesh, but the answer of a good conscience toward God,) by the resurrection of Jesus Christ:

Catholics are saved by

We are saved by God.

(or so they think)

We know we are saved by God. It is Protestants who proclaim their salvation by their faith alone.

attending mass

HEB 10²⁴And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:
²⁵Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another: and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching.
²⁶For if we sin wilfully after that we have received the knowledge of the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins,
²⁷But a certain fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation, which shall devour the adversaries.
²⁸He that despised Moses' law died without mercy under two or three witnesses:
²⁹Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, and hath counted the blood of the covenant, wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done despite unto the Spirit of grace?
³⁰For we know him that hath said, Vengeance belongeth unto me, I will recompense, saith the Lord. And again, The Lord shall judge his people.
³¹It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.

eating Jesus

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

confessing to man

John 20:23

King James Version (KJV)
²³Whose soever sins ye remit, they are remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye retain, they are retained.

obeying everything the men who lead them teach; works for salvation.

Hebrews 13:17
Obey them that have the rule over you, and submit yourselves: for they watch for your souls, as they that must give account, that they may do it with joy, and not with grief: for that is unprofitable for you.

and the list goes on.

Whereas, Protestants contradict the Word of God:
James 2:24
Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.

Blessings

And to you.

Sincerely,
