We agree. A person who claims faith in Christ is required to live out Christ’s words. Good works come about through your faith. Living out your faith through good works, for the rest of your life, brings you salvation.

Well, either you didn't really read what I posted, or you did and you are just trying to play a game. Either way, it doesn't do your "cause" much good.

I'll say it one more time....there is NOTHING that I do to earn my salvation. The ONLY thing I can do is either accept Jesus's finished work on the cross or reject his work to recieve my salvation.

I read it. I’m not playing a game.

Salvation is offered to us through faith. True faith would be lived out in actions. If there aren’t faithful actions, it would be like hiding your light under a bushel— or forgetting to put oil in the lamps— or not bearing fruit— or not turning the money loaned to you by the owner of the vineyard into a good investment.

Christ was a man of action. He demanded action of the Apostles and all of us. We can’t just believe in the cross; we must TAKE UP the cross and FOLLOW Him. Action. We must DO something if we believe. Action brings us to salvation.
