True most all agree that Jesus is the only name by which we are saved. But does that mean you must confess with your mouth and believe in your heart that Jesus Christ is "your personal Lord and Saviour"? Does salvation only mean entrance to Heaven? This puzzle is called the "Problem of the Heathens". It has been discussed for centuries and I'm not familiar with any major denomination that thinks only born and bred Christians (as opposed to say Pre-Colombian Native Americans) pass through the pearly gates.

Jesus did say that no one gets to the Father but through Him, sure, but even that isn't a conclusive proof-text.
