Salvation is a gift from God through faith in his son Jesus
We can do nothing of our own merit to gain salvation.
Faith comes by hearing and hearing the word of God.
We do not put much stock in Signs like the pentecostals do with "Tongues."
We are total believers in Infant Baptism.

I am sure I could come up with a few hundred but since you want it low I gave you some of the essentials.

Grace also is recieved and faith sparked/strengthened through Baptism and the Sacrament of the Altar. We believe in Baptismal regeneration, so we do Baptize infants, for the forgiveness of sins and to spark faith in their hearts.

If you are asking what we may do to be saved, well, the answer is to be perfect. ;) If you can't do that, then the obvious answer is nothing. We must then rely of Christ alone for our salvation, for by His merit alone we can be saved.

It takes Christ to be saved.

I like this answer! and...

It takes Christ to be saved.
While they serve up the main dish, i'll side to: "Mark 16:16 anyone?"
