“Regarding the debate about faith and works: It’s like asking which blade in a pair of scissors is most important.”

To: Salvation

“Regarding the debate about faith and works: It’s like asking which blade in a pair of scissors is most important.”

Salvation doesn’t require works in an addition to Christ’s complete and finished work on the cross. New life in Christ always produces fruit in the life of the believer. New life brings good works that God has prepared beforehand for the believer to walk in.

Where there is barrenness, salvation is suspect.
