Why do you have to believe in Jesus to have eternal life? Is that some sort of scam?
Nope. No scam.
The wages of sin is death. We're all sinners. To atone for our sin there must be a sacrifice. Christ became that sacrifice and atoned for our sin. In order to reap the benefits of His shed blood and death on the cross we need to accept that we're sinners and believe that He paid the price. If we reject Him then we reject His sacrifice which leads us back to the wages of sin -- death. So we can have everlasting life in Christ or death without Him.
John 3:18, "He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God."
