As the Epistle of Saint James says, "Do you see that by works a man is justified; and not by faith only? For even as the body without the spirit is dead; so also faith without works is dead."
As it is, we see Christ our Lord commanding us to do works in order to be saved throughout the Sacred Scriptures. For example, in John 3:5 Christ commands us to be baptized in order to be saved. And in Matthew 19:16-17 Christ commands us to keep the commandments in order to be saved. While in 1 Corinthians 13:2 the Scriptures tell us that faith without charity is useless.
The Scriptures also tell us that one of the standards by which we shall be judged on the last day, is our works. As Matthew 16:27 tells us, and I quote: "For the Son of Man will come in the glory of his Father with his angels: And then will he render to every man according to his works." The Book of the Apocalypse says the same thing in chapter 20 verse 13, while in Chapter 22 verse 13 of the same book it says the following "Behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to render to every man according to his works."

commanding us to do works in order to be saved
Nope. Salvation causes works of good. Works do not result in salvation.
See, it's stupid arguments like this that make me realize you are all going to slowly die off from idiocy as the Jews continue to take over.
You probably send money to jews too because they convinced you they were god's chosen people and for Christ to come back you had to help jews right?
Unbelievable.
you follow the Bible rather than lies told by peo
therefore you’re looking to die because you totally follow lies told by people rather than the Bible
Scream harder, you retarded fucking papist. You’ve never read the New Testament. Your cult leaders forbade you from doing it (you know, just like the jews) for centuries.
