A Point of Distinction, I think
It is not belief in the Holy Trinity, the Incarnation of God in Jesus Christ, or His literal bodily Resurrection that saves you, rather it is the REALITY of these that saves you.
Belief may be lacking, but if the REALITY is...there is no hope.
Glory to God for ALL things...INDEED HE IS RISEN!

I agree, though. I find this struggle in my own life. Are my "beliefs" congruent with the reality of my life? How much of the reality of the Trinity/Incarnation affect my day to day world? Part of my struggle is to avoid comparmentalizing my life and allowing what I believe to pervade every aspect. So, the man who is at prayer will be the same as the man who is at work.
It's simple...and perhaps because of that it seems so profound.
My belief in these things is not the instrument of my salvation...it is the reality of these things that saves me. Which in turn makes the belief so much more important.
