Good questions there Pope, when I was a believer I personally believed that salvation was a gift from god and therefore given to us by faith. But upon your confession of faith on that salvation your acts had to reflect your faith.
Ephesians 2:8
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
1 John 2:3-6
3.And hereby we do know that we know him, if we keep his commandments.
4.He that saith, I know him, and keepeth not his commandments, is a liar, and the truth is not in him.
5.But whoso keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: hereby know we that we are in him.
6.He that saith he abideth in him ought himself also so to walk, even as he walked.
The way I see it if you are a judge of the law you should lead the rest of the citizens in the province by your obedience to the law.

There is nothing people will not maintain when they are slaves to superstition
