You're a true Christian up until you are caught sinning.
Christianity lacks a practice.
Dependence on others accomplishes nothing.
If ya want something done ya got to do it yourself.
Meditation is a practice that increases awareness,
that helps identify sin before it has a chance to influence.

Mind is like Dirty Water, all the moving thoughts are the dirt particles that stir the water of the mind and make it murky, but when you still the mind, the rest of the dirt drops to the bottom, and the water becomes crystal clear, this is the awareness of mind, with a mind like that you can go further than ever before.
The mind is like a weak muscle in the beginning, it can't lift a lot of weight, but with continued practice, it becomes familiar and easier to do, eventually adding more weight to get stronger at what it is doing. The meditation helps increase the awareness of what you are doing so distraction does not tempt you away.
John 3:16 says,
Cause Jesus forgives.
There's no reason to practice Morality.
So being an evil little heathen and believing in Jesus will get ya to heaven. However if you are a good person and don't believe in Jesus you go to Hell.
Only a demon would suggest that,
only an ignorant would believe it.
In the Kalama Sutra, Buddha says.
Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it..
Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it.
