What Do You Think of New Age, Crossless Salvation?

It makes me think of when Jesus quoted Psalms saying 'God wants faith, not sacrifice.'
Although a writer with "Dandelion Salad" wrote that it 'negates the "redeeming" done for us by Christ's sacrifice,' I can't see what's causing us to be continually 'un-deemed' in the first place.
And once we ARE redeemed, are we not children of God? Unless we go 'prodigal,' are we not then just like Jesus?

Jesus is there for you. Faith is the key, then you can sacrifice. Once you have the faith, then you will sacrifice. Godfather's teachings are the key for us to know what to do.

You mean Father God, because I don't think I've seen any of those Mario Puzo movies 
You're right that Faith is the key. You need Faith that the sacrifice has been made, the sacrifice that 'PAYS IN FULL' your guilt-debt.

A cross less salvation is a false salvation. The Bible teaches that Christ is the Lamb of God, perfect and unblemished, a sacrifice for our sins because we can never be righteous enough on our own. That's the only way God can accept us.
Keeping the miracle of the Cross close to our hearts helps us draw closer to God in His wisdom and love. Why would we deny such an awesome gift? God doesn't want us to sacrifice ourselves, no. Not to self flagellate ourselves as some have done and do in some religions. Nothing we can do to ourselves or for ourselves will make us more acceptable to God. Only the sacrifice of Jesus on the Cross can do that and I thank God the Father that He loved me enough to make a way.

I think I'd rather focus on the resurrection.
Maybe we could invent a new story in which Jesus, Pilate and Caesar were transformed into supernatural beings and Caesar & Pilate blasted Jesus into a bazillion bits of Holy Spirit!

'go prodigal. I know I have tried to live a Godly life all my 85 yearsand hope to continue as long as I live. So I just go ahead and live life the best I can being kind and compassionate to all around me each day and hope He feels I am saved or redeemed. lol

Amen! 
God is greater than we can ever understand; He gives us the understanding we need, but trying to 'out-understand' Him is what tore-down Lucifer!

What is new age crossless salvation?? We are children of God, regardless of our state of redemption, whether we choose to believe we are, or not, as God gave us the will to do.
I would need more information to comment further, I find it hard, to have a Cross less salvation, when those events already happened.
