No Greater Burden


Acts 15:28-29 ESV
28 For it has seemed good to the Holy Spirit and to us to lay on you no greater burden than these requirements: 29 that you abstain from what has been sacrificed to idols, and from blood, and from what has been strangled, and from sexual immorality. If you keep yourselves from these, you will do well. Farewell.

Which work or ritual do you cling to as necessary beyond believing in Christ for salvation, to be a Christian? 
What does God say is the heart of the matter?
Is there anything you are needlessly carrying, a burden He will gladly lift from your back if you will but let go?
