I received this on my iPhone the other day. It said
You have won £250 cash or tickets to an Elvis tribute show.
Press 1 for the money or
2 for the show.
Now that's a context

4 might be the one you'll never know, you'll never know
If only there was a better way to go
Ok....let us try this one more time....do you understand English? .....Do you understand the RESULT of one's action?
Faith into the work of Christ IS WHAT SAVES A MAN....end of story.......
THE RESULT of the FAITH and SALVATION one ALREADY POSSESSES <----any work produced and or fruit.
THE WORKS/FRUIT do NOT SAVE, KEEP SAVED or FINISH OFF SALVATION.........
FAITH plus WORKS to GAIN, FINISH, KEEP salvation = a false GOSPEL other than the GOSPEL PAUL preached.....it is DOUBLE CURSED, FAKE, a FRAUD and has NO POWER

So now you have created a no works post? Oh my.... this is obscene. To all that read this forum please do not adhere to this heresy. This man can save his explanation for this false teaching for GOD. Why not go and add no works in reply to the Messiah's message to the churches? Let us see how that reads.... or not!!!
God did send a message, have you seen John 3:16? It points to the work of Christ on the cross, and our faith in Him and His sacrifice on our behalf due to His great love for us... that is what saves. Most of Scripture points to Christ. It testifies of Him, His victory over sin and death, and man's absolute destitution, spiritual poverty, and inability to save himself.
