Christianity teaches this: if you don’t have grace, you aren’t saved. When you boil it all down, this is the thing that distinguishes the Christian religion from every other religion and philosophy in the world. Christianity has a few things in common with every religious ideology and more things in common with a few specific religions (such as Judaism or Islam), but there is one thing that only Christianity has, the thing that makes it utterly unique. That thing is the gospel of Jesus Christ.
