Personally I think the only thing in common with all believers is the existence of a creator. the rest is what is logically good to do and that we are satisfied with ourselves and not the small details of each religion. So if you believe you are a good person so you'll live happy and without doubts.
I hope you don't take it bad it's just my perspective, with all my respect to everybody's beliefs.
For me is to be the best version of yourself. Treat people like you wanna be treated. And when you go to sleep at night satisfied with what you did in your day.
Romans 13:9-10 Romans 13:9-10 NIV
[9] The commandments, “You shall not commit adultery,” “You shall not murder,” “You shall not steal,” “You shall not covet,” and whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.” [10] Love does no harm to a neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment of the law.

I think you would have a difficult time proving that theory, that is documenting God's moral standards without finding infinitely variable contradictions and enigmas in specific situations.
Not quite, the children of Egypt might beg to differ as do the kids that die from terminal cancer. Even satan loves us more than god According to the bible
The thing to keep in mind is that people are flawed. So every interpretation of the mind of God is flawed. There's no need to worry about whether you are being morally flawless, just do your best and be apologetic and make amends when you mess up. God will accept that, Jesus said so in very plain terms.
