No one is going to be saved by the works they do, BUT as the Bible says, the works that are done are what will determine the outcome of the judgment; that is a common factor in all these passages ... and no one can nulify the Scriptures because he doesn't like what they say:

As seen, the Scriptures show that there is a judgement based on each one's works, as James said under inspiration to every empty man: James 2:20 But do you care to know, O empty man, that faith without works is useless?

And still, your opening post is wrong, according to the Scriptures.

Your opening post is wrong, according to the Scriptures.

The canon of the Hebrew Scriptures was traditionally divided into three sections: the Law, the Prophets, and the Writings, or Hagiographa, contained in 24 books (...). By further combining Ruth with Judges, and Lamentations with Jeremiah, some Jewish authorities counted 22, the same as the...

The Hebrew Scriptures, known as Old Testament were finished 4 centuries before Jesus. He and his disciples quoted profusely of them. They are the same we can read and study today. They were even translated to Greek already.

Yes. Your opening post is still wrong, according to the Scriptures. James the Less had one brother: Josés/José, the other son of Cleophas/Alphaeus and the other Mary. (Matt. 27:56; Mark 15:40,47) James the brother of Jesus had three more brothers: Joseph, Judas and Simon, sons of Joseph and...

According to the Scriptures, your opening post is wrong. James the Less (apostle) is one person, ...and James the Just (not apostle), the brother of Jesus and bishop of Jerusalem is a diferent person.

Rev. 22:12 “‘Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to repay each one according to his work. Psalm 62:12 Also loyal love is yours, O Jehovah, For you repay each one according to his deeds. Is. 40:10 Look! The Sovereign Lord Jehovah will come with power, And his arm will...

James, the son of Mary was: the brother of the Lord, James the Just, the bishop of Jerusalem, the writer of the letter. He died 62 CE. James, the son of Clephas and the other Mary was: one of the twelve apostles of Jesus, who followed him everywhere (Luke 6:15; Matt. 19:28). In these two...

We know that Jesus absolutely believed everything the Bible said was true (Read the quotes I included before). John 17:17 Sanctify them by means of the truth; your word is truth. Do you think Jesus would have said to anyone "The Bible contradicts itself"? John 10:35 (...) the scripture cannot...

When Jesus preached on earth, the Hebrew Scriptures (which some call the Old Testament) were already complete and could be read and studied. Did Jesus believe everything he read in the Bible? Did he believe that God created a man from dust and then a woman as his mate (Matt. 19:4-6)? Did Jesus...

Haven't you wondered why many modernized Christians don't believe that Adam and Eve were real people, even though Jesus considered them the first couple of humans created by God? Or why not even the Jews themselves believe that Moses really existed, and think that the 40 years in the desert...

Remember that in this topic the supposed luminaries of Christianity are being mentioned, people who supposedly have more biblical information to study and share ... There are thousands of people who read their articles, listened to their lectures and admired them as their religious teachers and...

Don't you wonder if those powerful works that those individuals directed and/or witnessed in their churches were real? How can you witness supposed powers that go beyond the human, and still lose faith? It was all false on the part of those men; from their faith, to their religious services and...

The Bible clearly shows that when the four names of Jesus' brothers are mentioned, it is referring to the children of Mary who accompanied her, NOT the followers of Jesus. Matthew 12:46 While he was yet speaking to the crowds, his mother and brothers were standing outside, seeking to speak to...

Mary, the mother of Jesus, had other sons and daughters. Mary, the wife of Clopas/Cleophas/Alphaeus, another woman, had a son named James (the Less), and another one named Joses. The Bible does not say that these men were related to Jesus. James the Less, the son of Clopas and the other Mary...

Just as several Marys are mentioned in the Greek Scriptures (NT), so are several James mentioned. Three of them are: 1) A James who was a follower and apostle of Jesus. This James was Jesus' cousin because he was the son of a sister of Mary named Salome, brother of the apostle John, writer of...

The apostle John does distinguish between the three Marys, besides Mary the mother of Jesus. 1) Mary the sister of Lazarus John 11:1 Now a man named Lazarus was sick; he was from Bethany, the village of Mary and her sister Martha. 2 This was the Mary who poured perfumed oil on the Lord and...

Another interesting detail is that Jesus told his disciples not to leave Jerusalem so that they would receive the holy spirit from above... the detail is that he had to ask the Father for it, receive it from him, and then send it to his disciples, which he did when he anointed them in Jerusalem...
