", 'I wonder what the minimum knowledge necessary for salvation is.' "

The minimum knowledge for salvation is all you can comprehend in any given situation. With the understanding that you will be held accountable to the "full extent of the law", and thus, a true believer has a "safety net", namely, the person of Christ. Or, as EGW has well said, "When we do our best, He becomes our righteousness."

Equality to God is the ultimate accountability. Thus, a believer defends the divinity of Christ of who equal to God. We approach God by way of Christ and "do our best" on a relative and moral level.

So, we have a 100% commitment to be 100% committed to God and Christ. If we work on this principle with an honest intention, we will pass the final judgment with flying colors.

Any theory that undermines this principle is of the devil. And in the end, we have fear and assurance coupled together as the true motive to be a Christian and obtain a fitness for heaven. Christ is our title.
