NO. It says in the Bible that by your works ye are known but by your faith you are saved. My understanding and belief is that if you are doing good to try and earn brownie points with God you lose.
Every one, believer or not, has some thing(s) (me) that they may have been forgiven for but will still need to answer after death. Just because a Christian may be forgiven for a "sin" they still have to answer for their actions.
I may have to answer for moderating this forum but I still do it.
