[hijack] Sorry I gotta disagree with this one. I know not everyone on here is a Christian, but I thought I remember reading that you were. According to most orthodox (read mainstream) Christian Protestant beliefs, salvation is promised because of belief in and confession to Jesus Christ--nothing more, nothing less. Has absolutely nothing to do with living a "right life".
Romans 10:9
That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Ephesians 2:8-9
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
