Is someone a bad Christian if they follow the word and the scripture, but they don't accept the Lord into their heart?
Or are they not even a Christian in the first place?

I compare it to the fire triangle because for there to be a fire there must be fuel, oxygen, and heat. That is an undeniable fact of our world. I want to compare it to sublimation too, but I just don't know how.
And if God is not in their heart then they lack one of the pieces of the Trinity and they are not actually a Christian. Am I right?

I follow many Christian principles more that actual dogmatic Christians, I don't consider myself a Christian nor I need to identify as anything. 
Now that you have mentioned except from going to the satanic church which should not exist I am acting more Christian than a Christian because of my lifestyle, values and principles. 
Do I believe in God, yes but I don't believe in bullshit too like "rituals" that you do in Church or prayers, prayers are our will and intention that God will eventually lend to us if you'll make your spirit louder, not the voices in your head.
Probably you want to end this conversation here.

You'd be a cultural Christian, but not a Christian nor should you really call yourself one.

Coming to Christ is important, but the world living by his law is important too. Most don't realize how fucked the world was before Christian ideology came about. 

Furthermore, it allowed to divide between the secular and the divine whereas in past civilizations, the State/Dominant religion must be adhered to, and was not divided from any aspect of life. Everything was in some, way, shape or form connected to the Gods and failing to observe their rituals made the state believe they'd bring the ire of those Gods, which is why Christians were so heavily persecuted. 

Not for any particular belief, but because their refusal to give even lip service to the Roman pantheon.

makes you a jew instead of a christjew

>trinity and the fire triangle
oxygen =/= fire
heat =/= fire
fuel =/= fire
the christjewish trinity is a schizophrenic denial of a kindergarten level math problem that is if a=b and b=c then a=c

But those rituals are the foundations of the principles. Like fasting or saying an anthem at a sports game. Those rituals have a meaning and allow us to put ourselves in the place of our ancestors so that we may see the world from their eyes, considering they invented the religion or game we should try and understand them and do as they have done.

I guess I have moved up from atheist   atheists are mostly anti-Christian  then lol

How is that different from saying "You will go to Hell" if you do something wrong?
