@Tropers/NimmerStill: It depends on the denomination, honestly.  At least one of Martin Luther's 95 Theses had something about "salvation by faith alone".  I'm no expert by any stretch but right now I think the general consensus at least among Protestants is that faith is the main thing, but you should still help your neighbor.

Religion:
* The Zoroastrian faith has the three-part mantra "Good thoughts, good words, good deeds."

Tabletop Games:
* This is how the afterlife works in the ''TabletopGame/ForgottenRealms'' for the vast majority of people who worshiped the gods faithfully but didn't take any particular one as their patron.  Those who took a patron deity are scooped up by them directly, those who betrayed their commitments to their deity (the False) are punished by the god of the dead according to the severity of their crimes[[note]]could be anything from having to be a tour guide in the City of Judgment on up to eternal torture[[/note]], and atheists (the Faithless) get stuffed into the Wall surrounding the City of Judgment to be slowly and painfully consumed.
