In short, EVERY other way aside from the cross is salvation by works. EVERY OTHER WAY. And salvation by works is plainly refuted in many instances in the bible.
Fulfilling the golden rule for salvation is SALVATION BY WORKS.
Living like the Good Samaritan without the cross for salvation is SALVATION BY WORKS.
Forgiving people of their wrongs to us, without the cross, is SALVATION BY WORKS.
No matter which way you slice it, any means to heaven WITHOUT THE CROSS is SALVATION BY WORKS.
This is the best summation I can give from my study. I can only speak for myself.
