In a word - yes you will be saved. Jesus died in my place - He drank the cup so I wouldn't have to.
Mark 16:16 - He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.
Joh 3:17 - For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.
Joh 10:9 - I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
Act 2:21 - And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be saved.
As for losing salvation, I believe you can. If you turn your back on Jesus, rebel and wilfully commit sin, you're on your way out of the Book of Life. Not recommended ...

Yes, if you live your life in communion with His laws. (The 10 commandments.) You don't have to accept Him as your "personal" Lord and Savior. If you believe in Him, have Faith in Him, and live your life by His commandments, you will be saved. Yes, you can lose your salvation. If you do not live by His commandments, you will lose your salvation.

If you can't lose your salvation, then it's going to be really awkward when I get up to the gates and turn to head to Hell and the gates of Heaven open for me, despite me having since left the faith.
Of course, at that point, I'm going to have to have a few words with God because if he doesn't have some REALLY good answers why he did some of the things he did, I'll head to Hell regardless of the invitation to heaven.

There is not the smallest fragment of trustworthy evidence to show that any of the Gospels were in existence, in their present form, earlier than a hundred years after the time at which Christ is supposed to have died. Christian scholars, having no reliable means by which to fix the date of their composition, assign them to as early an age as their calculations and their guesses will allow; but the dates thus arrived at are far removed from the age of Christ or his apostles. We are told that Mark was written some time after the year 70, Luke about 110, Matthew about 130, and John not earlier than 140 A.D. Let me impress upon you that these dates are conjectural, and that they are made as early as possible. The first historical mention of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, was made by the Christian Father, St. Irenaeus, about the year 190 A.D. The only earlier mention of any of the Gospels was made by Theopholis of Antioch, who mentioned the Gospel of John in 180 A.D.
There is absolutely nothing to show that these Gospels -- the only sources of authority as to the existence of Christ -- were written until a hundred and fifty years after the events they pretend to describe. Walter R. Cassels, the learned author of "Supernatural Religion," one of the greatest works ever written on the origins of Christianity, says: "After having exhausted the literature and the testimony bearing on the point, we have not found a single distinct trace of any of those Gospels during the first century and a half after the death of Christ." How can Gospels which were not written until a hundred and fifty years after Christ is supposed to have died, and which do not rest on any trustworthy testimony, have the slightest value as evidence that he really lived? History must be founded upon genuine documents or on living proof. Were a man of to-day to attempt to write the life of a supposed character of a hundred and fifty years ago, without any historical documents upon which to base his narrative, his work would not be a history, it would be a romance. Not a single statement in it could be relied upon.
If you believe the bible, then you also believe that you will be saved by believing in one of the most doubtful figures in history.

Yes.
Because your Spirit will get Recreated.
Adam messed his up and Passed it to Everybody Else.
That Messed-Up Spirit keeps you Outta Heaven for Eternity.
Doing Good and religions cannot Recreate your Spirit.
Only Jesus can.
Yes you can Mess up your Spirit Again and become Lost Again---Big Time (no more chance to get Saved, Born-Again).
VERY FEW DO IT(Unpardonable Sin).
