Men must come to certain conclusions to attain 'belief'. What would that be?

It revolves more around the confession of who Jesus is: "Who do you say that I am?" "Confess with your mouth that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead." And 1 Co. 15 lays out what is of first importance, which includes his death. So believing in total depravity is not necessary for salvation, unconditional election is not necessary for salvation, limited atonement is not necessary for salvation, irresistable grace is not necessary, nor is perseverance of the saints.
