Originally posted by @rajk999No one’s arguing with you, amigo. All I’ve ever said is that good works are not required for salvation but are evidence that one’s acceptance of Christ was sincere because God’s Holy Spirit has indwelt the new believer and has started to change his or her heart.

Faith without works is dead.

Works without faith in Christ leads to damnation.
Originally posted by @rajk999He said numerous times that believing on Him and in Him is necessary for eternal life. Everyone on earth has done at least one good work and many have done at least several and many have done several dozen and many have done hundreds. Without faith and belief in Jesus Christ, they mean nothing in terms of righteousness (being in right standing with God.)
Jesus never said that.

Originally posted by @rajk999I’ve said 1,000 times that sincere acceptance and belief in Christ leads to God’s Holy Spirit indwelling a new believer and the Holy Spirit will begin to change a new believer’s heart, and, consequently his or her behavior.

You still dont get what 'believing' entails.
Its not knowing He existed
Its not accepting He existed.
It is obeying his word.
Anything other that OBEYING is mouth worship.
