How are we saved?

To be saved we must believe in God’s love which He expressed by dying for the sins we committed against Him (Matthew 26:28). To believe in His love is to love one another as He has loved us (John 15:12). Therefore, it is not our own effort to be saved that saves us; rather it is God’s love for us and our acceptance of His love that saves us. In other word, if we do good acts just to be saved, it would not save us, because they have a selfish motive. On the other hand, if we believe in God’s love, and therefore, do good acts out of pure love, then we will be saved.
Furthermore, our contrition for our sins would be out of love for God and our fellow human beings, and not out of fear of punishment.
