That ignores the fact that "all have sinned and fall short of Godīs glory" and thus can only be saved by grace and not by their works (Romans 3, 21-26). Please read Romans 1-3. Itīs impossible to get saved without grace and Godīs grace has been given through Jesus who died in our stead.
For everyone who is really interested in the original Christian view on sin and justification I strongly recommend this video. Itīs worth listening:

Faith in the old greek means "to trust" when it is referring to a person. Faith in Christ means personal trust in him, a relationship. The human heart is wicked by nature (Eph 2, 3; Joh 3), thatīs why Jesus talks about being born again. Good deeds show that you have faith, but they canīt save you, because you also have sin. And this sin is against God, because he has the right to demand over your life and nobody fully gives it to him. So you have robbed someone infinitely great of what belongs to him, because he made you. And thatīs why you have infinitely great guilt and God canīt simply forgive that if he is just. Thatīs why Jesus came and if you donīt accept that he paid for you, how can you receive his grace. Itīs like somebody who offers you to pay for you in order to get you out of prison, but you say he is a liar, he canīt free me, I will get out on my own.
but ppl cant believe for some valid reason, for example traditions, parents, friends, cultural barriers etc. I believe that they can get saved, but im talking out of my own opinion not out of the bible. i dont think humans are all wicked, they have both tendencies from my observation, if they are only wicked they wouldnt be able to feel pity and try to help. edit also my own opinion.
