You beg the question. "Saved" via your interpretation? Who knows how many people save themselves as non-believers. You offer only one prescription. Reality is that there are many paths. None lead to eternal bliss, because we are mortal.
"Enlightened by God"? You merely repeat the claim of every other church group seeking government support via tax benefits or using the government to promote faith-based views. There are so many claims to "know God's truth", and so many men getting rich on appeals to the faithful to promote 'faith agendas', and so many claims as to which god is true. And a lot of hypocrisy.
Since you were previously a Chaplin in the US Military, you swore an oath to uphold the Constitution. Your oath is to defend Art VI and the First Amendment. Your oath was not to defend the Bible.
I have no problem with upholding the US Constitution, and it spells out my God-given right to freely exercise my religion.
My interpretation really has nothing to do with your destiny.
Whether you believe or not is already known. You will get at least one chance to settle into God's salvation for you.
God already knows if you will fight Him or go along with what's He would do with you.
"It is by grace that you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves. It is a gift of God; not of works so that no man can boast."
