Maybe one does not need Jesus saving since there are other spiritual teachers like Baha'u'llah who could save people.

I don't know one way or another. And i don't guess.

How would he do that. I believe only God saves.

Or maybe only the person her/himself can save oneself and that God, if God exists, judge all humans as individuals. There are many versions of that.

Yeah, that is one version of God. There are others.

Through the teaching. He gave his followers the teaching needed so they can save them selves, just like Jesus did to the Christians.

I believe guessing is fun. One could consider the odds. Granted one may never know what goes on in the person's head but there is a certain amount of public display that may be an indication.

I believe you are in error on two counts. A person can't save himself and that is not what Jesus did to Christians.

You have your understanding of it, I have mine. I dont think it would be right of me to speak about how they do it.

The odds are unknown and Pascal's wager is only one possible version.

I'm surprised to see Pope Francis on this list.

I believe that is a cop out. Either your understanding is valid or it is not. I believe it lacks validity.

I believe that is because appearances are deceiving.

Well, you holding on to Christian teaching (that is good)
Wheras i believe in a different teaching. So then it is difficult to discuss if one is stuck on only their answers can be the right one

Why don't you think Pope Francis is Christian? Is this just Protestant sour grapes?

All you need is love.
What does it matter to you whether or not the men you mentioned adhere to your preferred Christian beliefs? Given that you identify as a Christian, don't you think it would be wiser for you to focus on the plank in your own eye rather than worry about the speck of dust in other people's eyes? And what authority do you think you have to impose your beliefs on those who don't adhere to them and who worship other gods? Honestly, when will Christians learn to mind their own business and respect the beliefs of others who aren't Christians or who are Christians too but don't believe the same doctrines or biblical interpretation? FYI, that isn't a rhetorical question.
