The question was how do we get in Christ, NOT how do we become a member of some church!
John 6:44-45 No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.
It is written in the prophets, 'And they shall all be taught by God.' Therefore everyone who has heard and learned from the Father comes to Me.
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
John 6:46 Not that anyone has seen the Father, except He who is from God; He has seen the Father.
John 6:37 All that the Father gives Me will come to Me, and the one who comes to Me I will by no means cast out.
John 5:30 I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the Father who sent Me.
You have to be chosen by God himself, those who hear the calling, a great discernment Do something extraordinary like Christ, show Him your heart

Reason: spelling
I agree with Mysticphd in so many ways, that Christ knocked one out the park for us all, but better still it had self and religious condemnation written all over it. Le's Go Red Sox!
If those in Christ are saved, how does one get in Christ?
Biblically speaking, in the church-age, everyone who believes in Jesus is automatically entered into union with Jesus by the baptism of the Holy Spirit.
Gal. 3:26 For you are all sons of God through faith in Christ Jesus. 27]For all of you who were baptized into Christ have clothed yourselves with Christ. 28] There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither slave nor free man, there is neither male nor female; for you are all one in Christ Jesus.
The baptism of the Holy Spirit is one of several salvation ministries of the Holy Spirit. The moment you place your faith in Jesus the Holy Spirit enters you into union with Jesus. The believer's position is in Christ Jesus. And because the believer is in Christ, he is positionally seated with Jesus in the heavenlies.
Ephesians 2:4 But God, being rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5] even when we were dead in our transgressions, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6] and raised us up with Him, and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
