The Cross that no one wants to talk about

I believe you are correct, it seems that after that initial sense that works doesn't save them, but only believing and trusting in Jesus and the finished work He provided for our salvation, some degrade into a works righteousness game out of some mindset that they have are the ones who maintain salvation. It is human nature that causes many to have some sort of mindset that salvation is dependent on our efforts, at least to one degree or another.

Living a observant lifestyle is one thing, the problem is when a person starts to incorporate into that the idea that efforts are required to maintain salvation. That is basically suggesting that what Jesus did was not sufficient and He needs our help to keep His promise.

And many confuse Justification with Sanctification.
