1 | Do the will of the Father to enter heave | Matt 7:21 | reilly1041 | 87175 | ||
All right, sola fida experts.... This statement by Jesus seems to indicate that one needs more than faith in Jesus to enter heaven. Is this perhaps analogous to James 2:14, whereby saving faith is accompanied by works? Please help! Thanks, reilly |

2 | Do the will of the Father to enter heave | Matt 7:21 | Searcher56 | 87372 | ||
reilly, greetings ... Works and doing the will of the Father are evidence of our faith. We are saved by grace thru faith (Eph 2:8-9) ... then we can do His works (vs 10). It is like getting a heart transplant. The heart is freely given by someone who died, so that we may live. Once we receive the new heart we must exercise it, to show others. Our working out our new heart (salvation (Phil 2:12)) does not save us. Searcher |
