First things first

 People in churches might tell you all kinds of doctrines and all kinds of Bible passages to get you to come to Christ. But once you come—once you are baptised into Christ—it is the teachings of Christ you must follow, as his original apostles taught, and it is the Holy Spirit who must lead you. You must learn his commands, such as loving your neighbour as yourself, behaving towards others as you would have others behave towards you. The baptism is a baptism into Christ, not a baptism into a denomination’s human ways and understandings.
