Unless…

Maybe Matthew 22:37:

" Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
This is the first and great commandment.
And the second is like unto it, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.
On these two commandments hang all the law and the prophets.
What do you think? Is it possible God might grant your family eternal life based on these verses?

Well only God can make that judgement, but from what he gave us in his Word I would have to say no. Yes those are thing we have to do, but first we have to believe that we are sinners who need salvation, and what we do does not save us, but belief in Jesus Christs scrafice on the cross. Rituals and good works won't save us or keep us saved. They should be done only for worship and giving God the glory for saving us. We need to also realize that IF we do anything good, we did not do it, It was the HS working trough us.
