Jesus came to call the nation of Israel to repentance and salvation through His death as the "lamb of God" was not available until after His death, burial and resurrection. So when people asked Jesus what they had to do to be saved Jesus brought them back to the Law, mainly "love the LORD your God and love your neighbour as yourself."
However Jesus revealed more to disciples:
John 14:6 Jesus said to him, I am the Way, and the Truth, and the Life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
This verse makes it clear that the Jesus Christ is Himself the way to heaven. He does not just show the way, or make it possible for a person to earn their way, He is the way. Salvation is through Christ and Christ alone.
In other places in the New Testament the way of salvation is clear, for example:
John 20:31 but these are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in His name.
Act 4:12 and there is salvation in no other One, for neither is there any other name under Heaven having been given among men by which we must be saved.

How can you be really?
A:You need to visualise what you mean by 'saved', and no doubt you will then say, "Saved from hell." To be saved from hell, you presumably need to believe in hell, since most people in the world do not believe in hell, either having no religious belief or following a religion that does not teach of hell. Christians believe in hell, and they have two different views on salvation. In one camp are those who believe that all that is needed for salvation is to believe in the divinity of Jesus. A more rational camp believes that salvation requires not only belief in the divinity of Jesus but also forgiveness of sins.Thus, you have three choices: 1) you do not need salvation because hell is a theological invention to justify religion; 2) you must believe in the divinity of Jesus; 3) you must not only believe in the divinity of Jesus but also seek forgiveness of sins.
