I felt God told me that if we do not think we can be forgiven we will either go sin or work for our salvation. But we cannot work for our salvation our works are dirty rags. We got to know what Jesus did on the Cross was enough for your sin like His precious covers all sin and live for Jesus. We go to do the Good works because we are a family with God and He wants to use us to bring His children back so we are doing for teamwork and the Good works shows we are a Christians we got to remember its Jesus doing it through us, we are not doing anything we are dead and Jesus lives in us like verse Galations 2:20

Jesus paid the penalty for your sins by dying on the cross. Confess your sins contritely and ask Him to live in your heart. You cannot possibly work for salvation. That price was paid by the shed blood of Jesus on the cross.

Salvation is FREE. 'God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever truly believes in Him may not perish but have eternal life.' He died that we might be forgiven. So salvation and forgiveness and cleansing are free in the blood of Jesus. Galatians 2.20 is what follows.

Just trust Jesus....

It pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them that BELIEVE

He that believes in the Son is having everlasting life

The Work of the FATHER is to BELEIEVE on him whom he sent

In the grace you are having been saved out of faith, and that not of yourselves, IT IS THE GIFT OF GOD, NOT OF WORKS lest any man should boast.

GALATIANS 1 and 3 teach that faith plus works for salvation is false, a gospel of a different kind, no power to save and double cursed.

Abraham was justified by faith void of works

any works or fruit produced are the direct result of SALVATION and FAITH that one already has.

AN apple tree is an apple tree by birth (sprouting) from the moment it sprouts and only produces after a period of Growth and Maturity
