Dave, you know this already. Why are you kicking against the pricks?

It takes more than simply a vocal confession of your faith in order to get
into
Heaven. Your sins must be remitted, AND you must be sealed with the 
Holy Spirit. Except a man be born of WATER and SPIRIT, he CANNOT 
ENTER THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN.

No, we are not saying that we are saved by works...we are saved by 
grace through faith, but faith without works is dead! We confess our
faith and make our faith live by obeying God's word and getting baptized
in His name (there is only ONE baptism).

The Holy Ghost will fall on any repented soul, so that really isn't a work
on our behalf. Without the spirit of God, we are none of his.

So how can you say everyone believes in Bible salvation when they
don't even practice the fundamentals of being saved? They have a
form of godliness, but have no power thereof. They know OF God, 
but they ignorantly worship Him. They worship him without a 
knowledge of the Truth. WE are only here to show them "a more
excellent way". Sure, they have some truth...they know they must
worship God, but they err in knowing WHO to worship, or HOW to
worship Him.

It's OK for you to have an ought against your former assembly Dave for
whatever reason, and I can even go as far as condoning your leaving
your former church, but you CANNOT denounce the gospel that was
delivered to you and still expect to make it to Heaven...I'm afraid you
are bordering blasphemy and reprobacy here...
