And who preaches that?
Actually, I would say that a much more dangerous teaching is one which states that in order to be saved you must continue to keep the Mosaic laws. What that says is that Jesus statement on the cross that "it is finished" was a lie.
Did not Jesus die for all your sins? What can you do besides claiming the blood of Jesus over your sins that will save you? Does living a good life free from the outward manifestations of sin save you? Does it keep you saved? Or are you saved wholly and totally by the saving grace of Jesus?
Are you, if you believe in Christ, capable of committing a sin that Jesus did not die for? **

I believe that a belief in the Trinity and the PHYSICAL ressurection of Christ is also essential for salvation.

Some church like Dougs substitute historic Christian teachings for the Jewish law..

Saving faith must be in the right thing!

I believe that a belief in the Trinity and the PHYSICAL ressurection of Christ is also essential for salvation.

I believe that those beliefs are signs that the sinner has actually believed and has salvation, but any understanding of such complex doctrines as the trinity and an acknowledgement of the physical ressurection of Christ is clearly not necessary in order to be saved. If so then the thief on the cross was doomed.

Do you think that the 3000 souls that were saved on the day of pentacost had any idea of the trinity? Did they understand the principles of the physical resurrection of Christ? Or did they simply respond to the calling of the Holy Spirit in order to be saved?

Gee Mom, for a Calvinist it seems that you have added a lot of conditions for God's unconditional grace.
