Good works outside of Jesus Christ alone are actually wicked works because your trusting in yourself instead of the finished work of Jesus Christ.

All "good" works glorify God, because God is the origin of all things that are "good".
How can there be "good" works that are "outside of Jesus Christ"? Give some examples. If one is doing something God would not approve of, how is it a "good" work?

This conversation isn't about eternal life. It's about good works.
Why do you have to twist what people say into what you want to hear?
Start showing some common respect to what people say, instead of always bastardizing it to fit your agenda. While you're at it, do the same with the Bible.

I guess he isn't obvious enough for you. You are lucky to have me around to explain stuff for you.
Originally posted by @rbhillWhat difference does it make to people who do good works while not believing in Jesus, if people who do believe in Jesus think that those works are "wicked"? While you're at it, what difference does it make to those people who believe in Jesus?
