So you believe you will be judged for salvation by.

1. beliefs - as stated in the Nicene creed.
2. by your love or lack of, for God and neighbor.
3. by your forgiveness of others that wrong you.
4. by performing good works not done to make yourself look good.
5. by belief in Christ.
6. And "All of these and more is required of Christians who would be saved by Jesus to eternal salvation."

I assume by more you mean belief in all Roman Catholic doctrine (Marian, Papal, purgatory, forgiveness at confession, etc..).

That's a pretty tall order with requirements that make the pharisees look like libertarians.

Let's just stick with the words of Jesus for now (and the occasional helpful verse from the Epistles and Revelation). I presented an incomplete list of instructions from Jesus to Christians. Are there any commands on that list that you deem to be extraneous?
