A person is NOT saved because he accepts Jesus only. He is saved when he accepts Jesus AND obey his commandments. You may ask, why would someone NOT obey him after accepting him, well i have to point out what Jesus said about the situation.
21"Not everyone who says to me, 'Lord, Lord,' will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only HE WHO DOES the will of my Father who is in heaven.
I understand why you don't want to debate on this board, but i find that most people don't want to discuss these things because they don't want to look into them deeper. They shy away from examining their own beliefs because they fear that what they would find would be wrong all along.
Have a blessed day as well.
