Mr heretic, Jesus never said our works play a role in getting us to heaven. He said in John 3:16 that believe is all we need to have eternal life.

John 3:16 (KJV)
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.


His apostle Paul also condemned works as a criteria to make heaven. Paul corroborated Jesus when he said faith/believe is what saves us, not works.

Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV)
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Even the passage you quoted showed that the people whom Jesus commended for good works were already on his right hand. How did they get there? They got there because he saved them for having faith in him. It is that faith that led them to do good works while on Earth. It is not the good works that got them saved, otherwise Jesus death would be said to be useless to them since they could work their way into heaven.

You are here glorifying work based salvation and at the same time condemning the Pharisees for boasting about their works. Since you believe in work based salvation, you are no different in that you will also boast about your works on judgment day. But see what the passage said below about salvation. Read the bold


Ephesians 2:8-9 (KJV)
For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
Not of works, lest any man should boast.

On the judgment day, you will be among those whom Jesus will say he never knew because you are not trusting in him but in your wonderful works

Matthew 7:21-23 King James Version (KJV)
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.


@first bold

What is the will of the father?

John 6:40
And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Do you see how this goes in line with John 3:16?

You are not doing the will of God by believing in Jesus to give you eternal life. Instead you are trusting in your works to save you. You are trying to save yourself. For that you will be damned because you have rejected the finished work of Christ on the cross.
