Christianity

  edited January 19
Jesus said without eating His flesh and drinking His blood we have no life in us 
The church teaches communion is a great help against sin
This seems to mean a Protestant would have less chance to go to heaven or less chance for reward but I will rebutt it and prove one does not have to have this position as orthodox 
I think it is the rule but God does not have to insist on the sacraments if someone circumstance is different God judges us individually 
I believe what Jesus means about having no life is Protestants can not do the things which bring life to them now but they can live perfectly holy lives they can not produce fruit on the same scale to testify salvation life upon death but they can still produce all the fruit on a lesser scale
for them to be worthy of heaven but not now. Orthodox produce more than necessary to have no shame but Protestants produce enough to have no shame because the orthodox excess is due to extra grace. So why should orthodox have communion supposing they could be saved as Protestant ? An orthodox may not produce excess fruit to be worthy of life upon death but he can bear enough fruit to be worthy of life one day but I believe God specially chooses orthodox to go to heaven upon death even if he deserves to be as Protestants to not go straight to Him but I should rather say an orthodoxy who does not bear as much fruit he only loses the ability to witness to life but he is not worthy of death or he could be among those who are saved with less reward just as some Protestants will have less reward 
An orthodox should have communion because he does to heaven faster and enjoys the gifts of God and if he leaves the church while not at peace with others in wish to harm them if that is possible it does not seem good. And I don't know what else to say about that 

Perhaps they are also instructed in the world to come and given the body and blood which some will gladly take because they always willed to take it but they felt like they are dishonoring their parents 

I insist God pours out His Spirit or gives the same ability to have reward on all believers the same and that is what I hold and am comfortable holding because I am worried Jesus won't appear to every Protestant and be able to convince them they are accepted even if He gives them the power of the Holy Spirit and answers their prayers 
I insist also God gives same grace through pastors 

Also otherwise I think Protestants have reason to think orthodox are their enemies 

A priest is necessary in our church to guide us to repentance as Paul said they watch out for our souls as those who must give account therefore if Protestants do not have pastors they are making it harder for their salvation
