To the extent that following the tenets of those Vedas, Puranas and the Bhagwat gita is directly opposed to church doctrine, then only by the grace of God's mercy would such a person enter the kingdom.

well, quite frankly, there's no definition of a "true Hindu" -- at one level, everyone of Indian origin is a Hindu, by culture and thinking -- Hinduism doesn't confine itself to a bottle, you can have near athiests (arya samaj) as Hindus right up to near Christians who would believe everything that's Christian and may occasionally worship other deities.
