Others have answered your post that the Bible isn't so clear on the issue of salvation.
I can only add to reiterate my point that such wrangling over the issue of Christology between Muslims and various Christians sounds like babbling over hair-splitting nonsense to those of us who acknowledge we live in a natural universe. There's no evidence for Heaven or Hell, never mind how to get there. Consequently, your distinction with Islam is virtually meaningless to me.
Can you name for me one (1) edition of the Bible that translates Luke 2:2 with the word "before" instead of "during", "while" or "when"? Just curious.
