That's the thing... they both quote the bible, yet have two complete opposite conclusions. John says that unless you are born of water and spirit you can't be saved. then in Acts and Ephesians Paul says you need to believe/have faith in Christ to be saved.
Then you come along and says: If you have not known about Jesus you are still saved. You don't see the conflict here?
But I digress..
There have not been any discussion of what constitutes as the necessary conditions for salvation.
Clearly there are certain conditions to meet in order for the sacrifice of Christ to work. Does he not say (Matt 7:23) "I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity" to those who profess to believe in him and help his Kingdom move forward?
