Good question... Let me clarify some things before I actually answer the question..

1) Christians screw up just like everyone else. This might be blindingly clear, like everything else I'm about to say, but I thought I'd better say it.

2)Some Christians don't go to church... well.. maybe once or twice a year for the Easter and Christmas services, but you get my point

Enough of the fluff... Christians believe that sin is destructive, whether you are saved or not. We believe it makes people's lives unnecessarily painful. Besides, we're wild about Jesus... what else is there to get wild about?

If you touch a hot stove, you get burned. That also works as a pretty nice incentive to stay away.

Because that is what I was saved from. I was saved from the power that holds sway over mankind inducing them to do things that are displeasing to God, hurtful to their fellow man and self destructive. I don't want to do evil things any more, I delight to do what's good. I have received a new nature, like the nature that was in Jesus Christ.
I go to church because when I get together with true believers, I experience a heightened awareness of the presence of God, and there is nothing better in all the universe that the presence of God - if you are a believer.
You must be born again.

Salvations isn't something you gain just by saying you believe in Jesus. God has standards and rules that are provided for us in the Bible. You gain salvation by living your life in harmony with God's will...which is NOT to be going wild and breaking laws. In fact, the legal system in the U.S. and in many other countries is based on the laws God gave the Israelites in the Hebrew scriptures.

We are saved and God has given us this wonderful gift of salvation so 1) we want to tell others about this gift so they can be saved as well and by doing good things and loving people like Jesus does and did we show other people that Christians really are different people and God is really working in their lives 2) God wants us to serve Him and obey what the Bible says
By accepting Jesus as your saviour you are accepting that what the Bible and what God says is true

God has done so much for us it is the least we can do for him!

Well you can, I did, but once you know Jesus as your Lord, something happens and it seemed for me after a while I lost the desire to go wild as you put it and break laws. It do sent mean I don't sin and I have to continue to ask for forgiveness. But at least I am sure of my salvation ...are you?

Because contrary to popular belief the once saved always saved theory is not scriptural(Hebrews6:4,6 ;1Corinthians9:27; Jude5;Philipians2:12; 3:12-14; Matthew10:22; 2Peter2:20,21)Just some scroptures for consideration on this subject or question.

Your question is a little mixed up, but from how I interpret it, you want to know why we don't just go wild since we are saved instead of going to church and doing good things, yes?

The answer to that would be because the holy spirit swells with in us and we are changed and it comes naturally to want to worship and fellowship with fellow Christians and we are inclined to do good because we are saved, not as a source of getting saved.

Being saved doesn't give us the license to go out and do more evil just to increase His grace to us. Our lives are to be a reflection of Christ in us. If people look at us and can't see Christ, then we're doing something wrong.

I always liked the saying, "Christians aren't perfect, just forgiven." We're still gonna screw up somewhere, somehow......but Christ loves us so much that He applauds even the baby steps we take on our journey of faith.

Well I think what the Christians mean when they say 'saved' is that they mean God will let them to Heaven, only if theyve been good peeps tho.

But Jews didnt sacrifice human beings to god in order to save their souls.

animals were sacrificed in order to come closer to God, and eat food thats been slaughtered in His name.

Paul did many a wrong to the Christian faith as far as Im concerned.

All church homes use the Bible. it is the middle rfile for all Christians. whether, some do interpret it in distinctive procedures. So, because of the fact of those transformations, some say "they are actually not doing it superb, so, they maximum not be actual Christians," etc. E.g., the Bible mentions bishops, monks (presbyters is yet another translation), and deacons. So, the Orthodox, Catholics, Anglicans, Lutherans, and others have them. Many "Bible" church homes have pastors - that are actually not suggested interior the Bible. So, in basic terms a single occasion of a distinctive interpretation.
