I take it you have a different interpretation of John 14:6 and I John 5:11-13.

No. What I'm saying is, I think that there is room for many variations on that theme. Many folks think if you drink smoke dance drive fast cars and hang out in bars you ain't got a snowflake's chance in hell. I think that many folks will be surprised who ends up passing those pearly gates and who doesn't, because God looks at the heart.
I recall C.S.Lewis' The Last Battle, in which one of the followers of Tash, the false deity, finds himself in Paradise. When faced with Aslan (the God character), he is prostrate with his unworthiness, citing his lifelong devotion to his false god... Aslan tells him, what you did for Tash, you did for Me. Come into My Kingdom, my son.
