Really?
And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection
of life. -- John 5:29
For you render to each one according to his works. -- Psalm 62:12
I the Lord ... give every man according to his ways, and according to
the fruit of his doings. -- Jeremiah 17:10
When the wicked man turneth away from his wickedness ... and doeth
that which is lawful and right, he shall save his soul. -- Ezekiel
18:27
For the Son of Man will come in the glory of His Father with His
angels, and then He will reward each according to his works. Matthew
16.27
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed
of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation
of the world. For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was
thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
****d, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in
prison, and ye came unto me. -- Matthew 25:34-36
Who will render to each one according to his deeds. ... For not the
hearers of the law are just in the sight of God, but the doers of the
law will be justified. -- Romans 2:6, 13
For we must all appear before the jugment seat of Christ, that each
one may receive the things done in the body, according to what he has
done, whether good or bad. -- 2 Corinthians 5:10
Therefore it is no great thing if his ministers also transform
themselves into ministers of righteousness, whose end will be
according to their works. -- 2 Corinthians 11:15
The Father, who without partiality judges according to each one's
work. -- 1 Peter 1:17
I will give unto every one of you according to your works. --
Revelation 2:23
And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books
were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life:
and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the
books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which
were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in
them: and they were judged every man according to their works. --
Revelation 20:12-13
So, Carl, please explain to me why you are not saved by works even
when Jesus says so. You and Mr. Rice got the inside track? You know
more than Jesus? You feel good to redefine the requirements for
salvation? Hey, if you CAN redefine the requirements for salvation,
you can write in that pesky "believe on the Trinity" thing you want to
believe is a requirement. If you can make up the requirements as you
go, perhaps you can slide that one in when God is signing stuff and he
will miss that you did it. ;-)
