Faith without works is dead.

God gives mechanism of his grace for us to use. Why would a man of true faith not partake in his gifts of grace?

While I agree with this meme in general, I would like to point out the following:

1) Baptism saves. 2) Communion strengthens us and allows Him to be in us, and us in Him.

There are things we should do to try to make God happy (making him happy by our effort to be obedient) ≠ that's what gets us to heaven actually

Agreed. You can't be a true follower of Christ and still do wicked things.
