Ahem .. so do you have a Yes or No answer for my rather simple question?

If good works dont come and instead evil works is the result, what then, is the gift of salvation still the end result?

I almost became a JW.

To answer your question; yes. You must be a JW to go to heaven.

You can ask any JW and they'll tell you JW's don't go to heaven.

They believe that God is going to bring them back to life to live here on the earth.

The thing is though, I'm wondering whether or not they'll have any clothes to wear. In their little magazine they show pictures of happy people on this new earth they will live on, but they are wearing clothes.

I don't think that's right! If the JW's are going to be honest they should show happy naked people in their magazine.

Well ok then. But you or no one else here has explained all those scriptures that says works have to be involved. One in particular says :Faith without Works is death".
So when you read those scriptures, what is going thru your mind to be able to ignor them? I'm not insulting you but just curious.
works are the fruit of our relationship with Christ, not the cause

So if you dont have good works then you dont have a relationship with Christ.
Am I right?

Not necessarily.

2 Timothy 2:13 - If we believe not, yet he abideth faithful: he cannot deny himself.

Does that make sense to you?

Divegeester, do you have a Yes or No answer here?

Or are you going to do like Galveston and avoid these questions.

Well little Rajk, it's like this; first you hear, then you believe, and then you trust in what Jesus did on the cross on your behalf.

So simple even a child can understand it!

Ephesians 1:13 - In whom ye also trusted, after that ye heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation: in whom also after that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise,

It's right there in that verse just as I said. Can you see it? I bet you can't! I bet it looks all jumbled up to you. Go ahead man. I challenge you.
