damosky12: Hmmmm. Good message. But, Salvation and Righteousness are not by works but a free gift as a result of Christ's death and ressurection. 2CORINTH 5:21

Yeah, Salvation and righteousness are free gift from God and not as a result of one's work, but that's because u got if freely not because u really deserved or merited it, and remember you got the goodnews about salvation and justification of sins through christ which made you right standing with God, that gospel was recieved through faith, and we all know ''Faith without work is dead''
so which brings about you praticing your faith by working it out, just as christ illustrated that ''You dont light up a light and cover it up inside a container'' so how would your live Glorify God if you dont work your faith by working so others can see it and glorify God for your live?
That scripture is self -explanatery, so no one should try to twist it, ''it says everyone should work their salvation in fear and trembling having in mind that God is a righteouse judge and a rewarder and he has no favourite in judgement, less after doing a very hard work in his vineyard and winning souls for his kingdom, one get rejected and casted into outer darkness, God is a respecter of no man, his standard cannot change.
Whatever you sow u will reap''
So dont get it twisted. God cannot be mocked!
So watch every detail of your life cos you must'nt appear before the gate of heaven with any spot stained in your garment of righteousness given you by christ...
God help us all!

You have gone back to works by quoting James. Many get the two wrong, James is a legalist, Paul's gospel of grace is different to the gospel the other disciples preached. Many think the gospel of faith alone is a licence, that is where the problem is.
