Hmm, do you mean that if one is an athiest or agnostic but avoids wrong doing you will find God's favour?
Perhaps, although I dont think that faith in God is like that, I think faith in God or knowledge of God is more about relief of the sorts of feelings which accompany doubt or uncertainty.
Not quite. I don't think avoiding doing wrong is enough either since none of us are righteous. I really believe that much.
I think that if nothing else, it involves a change of heart that must take place.
It's paradoxical to me because I won't accept a God that goes by the legalist, prescribed rules only without taking heart into account.
This means that just doing good is not good enough, and just believing the scriptures is not good enough either.
