Can religious activity lead to salvation?

Answered in 1 source

Religious activity alone cannot lead to salvation; it is only through faith and God's grace that one is saved.

Simply participating in religious activities or having outward religion is insufficient for salvation. Paul highlights this in his warning against relying on outward forms such as circumcision and the law, asserting that they do not contribute to true righteousness (Romans 2:25). Many think that by doing good or obeying rules they can be saved, but this belief undermines the grace of God which alone saves sinners. True salvation must involve genuine faith and reliance on Christ’s finished work, as evidenced by a heart willingness to commit everything to Him.
