How a person behaves is, in most cases, indicative of their character.

You do the math.

When I was a Christian I wanted to be judged on my faith and character because those were my strengths. I think whatever strong points people have is what they want to be judged on, so those doing good works obviously would want to be judged on that. Fortunately there is no judging so I'm afraid these people who do it for brownie points are going to be sorely disappointed.

I rekon each Christian would have a different answer.
I would prefer to be judged on a little bit of both.

Vague. The path around the bush gets worn.

If you look at me, you will be disappointed. I am weak. God is (very) busy at work on me.

I'd rather you look at Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith. Hebrews 12:2

People should be judged by their behaviour...being of a religious denomination (or faith) means nothing on it's own.
