Many "christians" know that catholics, mormons, a Jehovah's witnesses are not Christian but they are ignorant of the deception of false conversions to a false "mainstream Christianity". Most deny it because they are a part of this false broad road {to hell] mainstream "christianity" that has deceived the masses.
From the start of Creation, Yahweh expected obedience from His creation. Adam and Eve were given charge to not eat the fruit (probably a pomegranate) from the tree of good and evil. They ate. Cain and Abel knew the sacrifices Yahweh expected of them. Cain disobeyed.
Genesis 3
1 Now the serpent was more subtil than any beast of the field which the LORD God had made. And he said unto the woman, Yea, hath God said, Ye shall not eat of every tree of the garden?
2 And the woman said unto the serpent, We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden:
3 But of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, God hath said, Ye shall not eat of it, neither shall ye touch it, lest ye die.
4 And the serpent said unto the woman, Ye shall not surely die:
5 For God doth know that in the day ye eat thereof, then your eyes shall be opened, and ye shall be as gods, knowing good and evil.
6 And when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was pleasant to the eyes, and a tree to be desired to make one wise, she took of the fruit thereof, and did eat, and gave also unto her husband with her; and he did eat.
Genesis 4
3 And in process of time it came to pass, that Cain brought of the fruit of the ground an offering unto the LORD.
4 And Abel, he also brought of the firstlings of his flock and of the fat thereof. And the LORD had respect unto Abel and to his offering:
5 But unto Cain and to his offering he had not respect. And Cain was very wroth, and his countenance fell.
Most "christans" claim that "the law is for the Jews" and "we are under graaaace, not the law" and "Jesus nailed it to the cross" although if his was true, Cain and Abel would not known to have sacrificed before Noah's flood and about 3,500 years before the law was re-given to Moses. Job, a contemporary of Abraham long before Moses, also made sacrifices to Yahweh.
Job 1
4 And his sons went and feasted in their houses, every one his day; and sent and called for their three sisters to eat and to drink with them.
5 And it was so, when the days of their feasting were gone about, that Job sent and sanctified them, and rose up early in the morning, and offered burnt offerings according to the number of them all: for Job said, It may be that my sons have sinned, and cursed God in their hearts. Thus did Job continually.
Remember Noah also knew which animals were clean and unclean and took extra of the clean animals on the ark in order to offer sacrifices when the flood receded.
Genesis 7
2 Of every clean beast thou shalt take to thee by sevens, the male and his female: and of beasts that are not clean by two, the male and his female.
3 Of fowls also of the air by sevens, the male and the female; to keep seed alive upon the face of all the earth.
Genesis 8
20 And Noah builded an altar unto the LORD; and took of every clean beast, and of every clean fowl, and offered burnt offerings on the altar.
21 And the LORD smelled a sweet savour; and the LORD said in his heart, I will not again curse the ground any more for man's sake; for the imagination of man's heart is evil from his youth; neither will I again smite any more every thing living, as I have done.
All throughout the old testament, Yahweh repeatedly warned Ancient Israel against whoring after other "gods" and using pagan practices to worship Him. I have posted about this many times and recommend you go and review previous posts. Here are links to a few:

Most "christians" think that everyone who "names the name of Jesus" (who isn't catholic, mormon, Jehovah's witness of course) is saved if they "belong to a mainstream protestant church" but this is not so. Most of the popular teachers and "prophets" are false and leading people to follow after false "gods" just as the false prophets of Ancient Israel did. In Ancient Israel. the people thought they were following Yahweh when they followed their false prophets and false teachers - just like the multitude of "christians" believe they are following Yahweh when they listen to their false teachers and false prophets. Just like in Ancient Israel, false "christians" deny they are following pagan ways and going after false "gods".
Jeremiah 2:23 How canst thou say: 'I am not defiled, I have not gone after the Baalim'? See thy way in the Valley, know what thou hast done; thou art a swift young camel traversing her ways;
Isaiah 30
9 That this is a rebellious people, lying children, children that will not hear the law of the LORD:
10 Which say to the seers, See not; and to the prophets, Prophesy not unto us right things, speak unto us smooth things, prophesy deceits:
2 Timothy 4
3 For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;
4 And they shall turn away their ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.
5 But watch thou in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, make full proof of thy ministry.
Many people "accept Jesus into their heart" but refuse to follow Yahweh's instructions. They are taught - by their "pastors" that obedience is not necessary because "christians are under graaaaace, not the law". Most do not question their pastors on this because they do not know better, do not read their bibles, and trust what their "pastors" teach them. This is the very same thing as when Messiah Yeshua called out the pharisees for making their followers twice the hell bound sinners that they were:
Matthew 23
13 But woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye shut up the kingdom of heaven against men: for ye neither go in yourselves, neither suffer ye them that are entering to go in.
14 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye devour widows' houses, and for a pretence make long prayer: therefore ye shall receive the greater damnation.
15 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye compass sea and land to make one proselyte, and when he is made, ye make him twofold more the child of hell than yourselves.
16 Woe unto you, ye blind guides, which say, Whosoever shall swear by the temple, it is nothing; but whosoever shall swear by the gold of the temple, he is a debtor!
17 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gold, or the temple that sanctifieth the gold?
18 And, Whosoever shall swear by the altar, it is nothing; but whosoever sweareth by the gift that is upon it, he is guilty.
19 Ye fools and blind: for whether is greater, the gift, or the altar that sanctifieth the gift?
20 Whoso therefore shall swear by the altar, sweareth by it, and by all things thereon.
21 And whoso shall swear by the temple, sweareth by it, and by him that dwelleth therein.
22 And he that shall swear by heaven, sweareth by the throne of God, and by him that sitteth thereon.
23 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye pay tithe of mint and anise and cummin, and have omitted the weightier matters of the law, judgment, mercy, and faith: these ought ye to have done, and not to leave the other undone.
24 Ye blind guides, which strain at a gnat, and swallow a camel.
25 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye make clean the outside of the cup and of the platter, but within they are full of extortion and excess.
26 Thou blind Pharisee, cleanse first that which is within the cup and platter, that the outside of them may be clean also.
27 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! for ye are like unto whited sepulchres, which indeed appear beautiful outward, but are within full of dead men's bones, and of all uncleanness.
28 Even so ye also outwardly appear righteous unto men, but within ye are full of hypocrisy and iniquity.
29 Woe unto you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because ye build the tombs of the prophets, and garnish the sepulchres of the righteous,
30 And say, If we had been in the days of our fathers, we would not have been partakers with them in the blood of the prophets.
31 Wherefore ye be witnesses unto yourselves, that ye are the children of them which killed the prophets.
32 Fill ye up then the measure of your fathers.
33 Ye serpents, ye generation of vipers, how can ye escape the damnation of hell?
There are many "pastors" and false teachers that heap to themselves followers who believe they are accepting "Jesus as Savior" but these
false teachers are making them into worse sinners than they are. Most "pastors" claim you need to stop sinning and then claim you do not
need to "follow the law" yet sin IS DISOBEDIENCE OF THE LAW (Yahweh's laws, not mans laws)
1 John 3:4 Whosoever committeth sin transgresseth also the law: for sin is the transgression of the law. (Yahweh's law - not man's law)
Matthew 7
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.G458
Strong's number G458 iniquity (transliterated as anomia) :
anomia
1) the condition of without law (Yahweh's law - not man's law)
a) because ignorant of it
b) because of violating it
2) contempt and violation of law, iniquity, wickedness (Yahweh's law - not man's law)
Messiah Yeshua says He will reject those who claim to be doing works for Him and in His name if they do not OBEY Yahweh yet most false "pastors" and "teachers" claim obeying Yahweh is "woooorks" and "we are under graaaace, not the law" to justify rebelling against Yahweh's laws and not obeying what He says those that love Him are to do.
Yahweh had Isaiah write of the end times about those who are rebellious against Him and His laws yet think they are "holier than those who obey Yahweh"
Isaiah 65
1 I am sought of them that asked not for me; I am found of them that sought me not: I said, Behold me, behold me, unto a nation that was not called by my name.
2 I have spread out my hands all the day unto a rebellious people, which walketh in a way that was not good, after their own thoughts;
3 A people that provoketh me to anger continually to my face; that sacrificeth in gardens, and burneth incense upon altars of brick;
4 Which remain among the graves, and lodge in the monuments, which eat swine's flesh, and broth of abominable things is in their vessels;
5 Which say, Stand by thyself, come not near to me; for I am holier than thou. These are a smoke in my nose, a fire that burneth all the day.
and during the millennium
Isaiah 56
6 Also the sons of the stranger, that join themselves to the LORD, to serve him, and to love the name of the LORD, to be his servants, every one that keepeth the sabbath from polluting it, and taketh hold of my covenant;
7 Even them will I bring to my holy mountain, and make them joyful in my house of prayer: their burnt offerings and their sacrifices shall be accepted upon mine altar; for mine house shall be called an house of prayer for all people.
Again, Yahweh is the same yesterday, today, and forever so if He gave the law to Adam and Eve so that Cain and Abel knew to sacrifice and if there is a Sabbath keeping in the millennium (as well as free will sacrifices), then today He also expects obedience and Messiah will reject those who refuse to obey as shown in Matthew 7:21-23 above as well as in the following verses:
John14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments.
John14:23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him.
John15:10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
1 John 2
3 And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4 He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
1 John 5
2 By this we know that we love the children of God, when we love God, and keep his commandments.
3 For this is the love of God, that we keep his commandments: and his commandments are not grievous.
Revelation 14:12 Here is the patience of the saints: here are they that keep the commandments of God, and the faith of Jesus.
Revelation 12:17 And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.
Do not whore after the false teachers and false prophets that are telling you ear tickling lies. Their lies lead people into following a false "god" and even if they are accurate sometimes, it is a test by Yahweh to see if you love Him - and shown in previous verses: if you love Him, you will obey Him. The false prophets and false teachers that are giving you the news you want to hear about Messiah Yeshua's soon return are seducing you down the broad road to hell. Even if they are sometimes accurate, that is a test by Yahweh.
Deuteronomy 13
1 If there arise among you a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder,
2 And the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them;
3 Thou shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams: for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul.
:4 Ye shall walk after the LORD your God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye shall serve him, and cleave unto him.
Do not be deceived by the numerous false prophets and false teachers. Scripture repeatedly warns in the last days they will rise up to deceive - even the very elect if possible.
Matthew 24
24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.
25 Behold, I have told you before.
