Personally I think the cult of Ymir are just insane and what they believe isn't real.

Like that Andraste Dragon Cult from Dragon Age.

If the original Ymir does live on it's through the memories in the titans she passed down. Like King Fritz, but buried far deeper, and perhaps divided between all nine of the titans as well. My personal theory is that she'll be reborn in some way once a single person holds all nine titans together again.

Eren actually has 3 of the 9 already, and has easy access to Annie, Zeke and Armin. That leaves only the 3 Marley titans to pick up, and they're probably the weakest titans left and thus realistic to obtain them by force. It's totally possible that this is how the series concludes.
