At the judgement seat of Christ, men's works will be tried by fire. Here are the verses;
!st Corinthians Chaptert 3
11 For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ.
12 Now if any man build upon this foundation gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, stubble;
13 Every man's work shall be made manifest: for the day shall declare it, because it shall be revealed by fire; and the fire shall try every man's work of what sort it is.
14 If any man's work abide which he hath built thereupon, he shall receive a reward.
15 If any man's work shall be burned, he shall suffer loss: but he himself shall be saved; yet so as by fire.
So, a man who is saved, will be saved even if he has NO good works! A man who is not saved will be condemned to hell even if he has countless good works.
This is what it takes to be saved; Jesus came to earth to die for our sins. No one killed him, but he gave up his own life for ours ( John 3;16). He was buried and rose again the third day. This is the gospel of the New Testament. It is your belief that is critical to salvation. So, following logic, WHAT you believe is of the utmost importance.
The word 'catholic' was first used to describe Christians, however 'Roman' catholic is a whole 'nuther ball game. Here's a few things 'wrong' with Roman Catholicism. In John 14:6, "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." It doesn't say plus Mary, plus priests, plus 40,000 canonized saints. The Bible says nothing about a Pope. Mary was blessed among women, but she is a bag of bones in Israel, and to pray to her ( or anybody else) is an abomination. No man on earth can forgive sins. Purgatory...where in the Bible is purgatory? And you have to pay to get out? Can you give me some Bible versus to back up these things? I don't believe you can.
Let's do the gospel again...if you believe and accept that the sacrifice of Jesus Christ and his blood are sufficient to pay for your sins, then the the heavenly Father has promised eternal life for you. What else can anybody add, how far can anybody deviate before it changes what they think the gospel is? None at all is the answer. You can't believe the gospel plus anything else and get to heaven, pure and simple. You can't believe we're all going to get there one way or another, because Jesus said there is only ONE way. You can't add water baptism or speaking in tongues and it still be the gospel. You certainly can't add people.
I go to a baptist church but I'm not a baptist. Baptism is not required to fulfill the gospel.
So, to answer your title question, I don't believe that Catholics, Church of Christ, Church of God, Presbyterian, Methodist, Seventh Day Adventist, Jehovah Witness, Morman, Satanists, Wiccan, or any other cult will get to heaven. Will God send these and lost people to hell? No, they will send themselves, because they have chosen to change the gospel to suit what they were raised up on or what they prefer to believe or they believe what makes them feel comfortable.
If you religion says that salvation is more than the simple gospel, then you have the wrong religion. As a matter of fact, I have NO religion at all. I am simply a person who has been saved from hell.
This is NOT my opinion but is what's found in the Bible. Accept the blood of Jesus Christ today and become a saved person.
