No, it is throwing myself at the mercy of the Lord, and trusting Him to keep His promises as He has all through the OT Scriptures. He promised that those who believe the Gospel, repent of their sins, confess Him as Lord of their life, and are baptized into Him will be saved. And He also promised that those who do not obey Him will be condemned. Accepting the Gospel, repenting, confessing Jesus, and baptism are not "good works" that would earn or merit the life of God's Son. They are acts of surrender to God's will as opposed to our own will.
