Like anyone else: by the grace (free gift) of God. Salvation is possible when our sins are forgiven, which is why Jesus came to die for our sins, in our place. If some Anglicans give you another answer (saved by good works, baptism, taking communion, or whatever) then they have totally missed the point of the whole Bible.

No, Jesus was not a metaphor! He was (and is, and will always continue to be) a real, living Person who not only inhabited history as reported so thoroughly in history's most influential and significant collection of books -- the Holy Scriptures, or Bible -- but pre-existed human history (as a member of the Triune Godhead, which the Bible teaches exists without beginning and without end, without being constrained by time and space).
The Bible teaches that Jesus created all that is; that He was born of a virgin, lived and died in first century Palestine; was resurrected by His Father from the dead; and lives now to intercede for us at the right hand of the Father.
Metaphors in Scripture are mostly obvious. For instance, "at the right hand of the Father" is probably metaphorical, since we know that God is spirit (and spirit does not, literally, have a right hand). Right hand is therefore metaphorical. But the Person, Jesus Christ, just as clearly is not.
Do Anglicans use the rosary in church?
Some do, but they shouldn't.
The Anglican 39 Articles of Religion say this: "The Romish Doctrine concerning Purgatory, Pardons, Worshipping and Adoration, as well of Images as of Relics, and also Invocation of Saints, is a fond thing, vainly invented, and grounded upon no warranty of Scripture, but rather repugnant to the Word of God."
The Rosary includes prayers to Mary, who is a Saint, which as the Article says is not biblically warranted.
It is also worth considering what Jesus said: he warned against thinking that prayers will be answered "because of their many words" (Matthew 6:7).

The Catholic and Anglican Church are quite similar, the main difference being that the Anglican Church allows divorce. Puritans felt both groups were too extravagant with their golden chalices, crucifixes and grandiose cathedrals. Rather, they felt Christians should live a pious, simple life, like that of Christ. They wanted to take away what they felt was an emphasis on the material world.
Anglican Catholic Answer!
Not to disagree to far with the above!
The Catholic Church is the Body of Christ and is the groups of faithful united through their bishops in to that Body!
It is wishful thinking to presume that the Holy Roman Church is that Body and the Bishop of Rome to be Christ's Viceroy on earth.
It is these latter claims that the Puritans and even some Catholics objected to as they have basis in neither scripture or tradition!
The Anglican Church is one of these groups that hold to the Catholic faith, being a Communion of faithful believers. The Orthodox Church is another such. They hold to Christ's revelation, Scripture and Councils, which is the faith of the first thousand years. Besides which they hold to the fulness of the Faith and the Catholic Councils.
Why do Puritans reject them both? because they hold to Set Liturgies and believe that the Church is guided by bishops and the threefold ministry and that the Catholic Church is Body of Christ.
Whats 5 Marks of Mission of the Anglican Church?
The Five Marks of Mission are 1) To proclaim the Good news of the kingdom 2) To teach, baptise and nurture new believers 3) To respond to human need by loving service 4) To seek to transform unjust structures of society 5) To strive to safeguard the integrity of creation and sustain and renew the life of the earth.
These were created by the Anglican Consultative Council between the years of 1984 and 1990 and a guideline for Churches to go about mission.

Who was the founder of Anglicanism?
King Henry 8 of England pulled the English church out from the authority of the Pope. He left the Roman Catholic organization. He had Archbishop Cranmer translate the Greek Orthodox worship service for its use. And Cranmer also wrote brief articles of faith. So it has Roman Catholic organization, Greek Orthodox worship and spirituality, and Protestant theology.
Which English ruler natiolanized the Anglican Church?
The English Church has never been nationalised, you've either been misled or you've misunderstood what's been said.
The Anglican Church is, or was, the English people at prayer! It is a Communion of Catholic Believers.
Further..
While the above may be technically correct the general perception is that Henry VIII created the Church of England or the Anglican church when he broke with the Catholic church
Which version of the Bible is used by the Anglican Church?
The original-language texts of Ancient Hebrew or Greek are universally accepted as the correct version of the bible by Anglicans.
For people who can not read Ancient Hebrew or Greek (most people), an English (or any other language) translation is acceptable--the more accurate the translation, the more authoritative. The translators of the King James version of the Bible [ie KJ] translated these original-language texts as precisely and accurately as humanly possible because they knew they would be accountable to God for the way they handled the actual words of God. Accordingly, the King James is a very good and literal translation, as well as using beautiful language, and was used from the Reformation on to determine and define Christian doctrine and theology. This is why it sometimes seems that a church holds the "King James" as the only translation.
The 1928 Book of Common prayer uses passages that actually predate the King James version, yet bible studies at Province of Christ the King churches (which use that prayer book) use many translations, from the King James to the NIV.
In fact, almost all translatiions may be used in the Anglican Church including the KJ, NKJ, RSV, the NIV, NASB, Good News and so on. We use many different translations during our Bible Study sessions as it iis sometimes very enlightening to read how one translation copes with a text rather than another.
The only translation of the Bible not used in the Anglican Church is the New World Translation as used by Jehovah's Witnesses as this is a skewed and mistranslated text that has been biased to fit in with their heretical beliefs.
(The Book of Mormon is not a Bible translation.)
There is no single "best" version of the Bible. All the different Bible versions have their strengths and weaknesses, just as every person also has their own strengths and weaknesses, their own educational levels, stage of Christian walk, there is also personal preference, and then there is peer pressure where logic does not necessarily follow. (The important thing is to ask God about it.)
