Beware of false teachers who claim that you have to earn your way to heaven by working hard or doing so you can have eternal life. Beware of religion where you have to work hard [/b]to earn your salvation, beware of the lies that you have to[b] work your way to earn your righteousness,

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Roman 6:23- First what is a gift? a gift is a thing given willingly to someone without payment; a present.
Romans 10: 9 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved.
Once you have accepted Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, you are righteous .
