Nothing has changed since the 1500's in regards to official Roman Catholic not allowing the sinner to rely by faith on the mercy of God or to believe that his sins are forgiven based on the merits of Christ's finished work of redemption alone. Something more is required. You must keep yourself saved by your own good works. You must merit grace and eternal life by your works. You must pay the debt of sins by your penance and your purgatorial sufferings. That is the Roman Catholic version of salvation by works. Again I ask, "do you agree with all of that?" All of those Canons? As for the Catechism of the Catholic church:
Here is a summarized paragraph with references found in the Catechism of the Catholic church (CCC) of many of the false teachings of Roman Catholicism. How do we know they are false? By comparing Scripture with what is taught.
The Catholic Church is the one true church (CCC 2105), Infallibility of the Catholic Church, (CCC 2035), Only the Roman Catholic Church has authority to interpret Scripture (CCC 100), The Pope is the head of the church and has the authority of Christ (CCC 2034), The Roman Catholic Church is necessary for salvation (CCC 846), Sacred Tradition equal to scripture (CCC 82), Forgiveness of sins, salvation, is by faith and works (CCC 2036 CCC 2080 2068), Full benefit of Salvation is only through the Roman Catholic Church (Vatican 2, Decree on Ecumenism, 3), Grace can be merited (CCC 2010 CCC 2027), The merit of Mary and the Saints can be applied to Catholics and others (1477), Penance is necessary for salvation (CCC 980), Purgatory (CCC 1031 CCC 1475), Indulgences (CCC 1471 CCC 1478 CCC 1498 CCC 1472), Mary is Mediatrix (CCC 969), Mary brings us the gifts of eternal salvation (CCC 969), Mary delivers souls from death (CCC 966), Prayer to the saints (CCC 2677), The Communion elements become the actual body and blood of Christ (CCC 1374 CCC 1376).
It's not about picking on Catholics. It's about exposing their false teachings and contending for the faith once and for all delivered to the saints.
If you did no works at all, then you would demonstrate that you have a dead faith and not genuine faith, yet we are still saved through faith, not works.
None of those verses above teach salvation by works. It doesn't sound like you are fully grasping the errors of Roman Catholicism.
Works neither obtain or maintain salvation. From beginning "have been saved through faith" (Ephesians 2:8) to end "receiving the end of your faith--the salvation of your souls" (1 Peter 1:9) salvation is through faith and is not by works.
Catholics are wrong about calling progressive sanctification - progressive justification. Catholics also reject IMPUTED righteousness (Romans 4:5-6) for imparted righteousness.
Do you agree?
Justification is the work of God where the righteousness of God is reckoned to the sinner, so the sinner is accounted as righteous by God (Romans 4:5-6; Philippians 3:9). This righteousness is not earned or retained by works. Justification is an instantaneous occurrence with the result being eternal life. It is based completely and solely upon Christ's finished work of redemption and is received through faith (rightly understood) in Christ alone.
Sanctification is the process of being set apart for God's work and being conformed to the image of Christ. This conforming to Christ involves the work of the person, but it is still God working in the believer to produce more of a godly character and life in the person who has already been justified (Philippians 2:13). The justified person is actively involved in submitting to God's will, resisting sin, seeking holiness, as we continue to grow in grace. Ongoing sanctification has no bearing on justification. That is, even if we don't live a sinless, perfect life (which we won't) we are still justified by faith in Christ. Where justification is a legal declaration that is instantaneous, ongoing sanctification is a process.
Glorification is the future and final work of God upon Christians, where he transforms our mortal physical bodies to the eternal physical bodies in which we will dwell forever.
