Ephesians 2 8-10

8 For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, 9 not a result of works, so that no one may boast. 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.

Matthew 25:31-46

31 “But when the Son of Man comes in His glory, and all the angels with Him, then He will sit on His glorious throne. 32 All the nations will be gathered before Him; and He will separate them from one another, as the shepherd separates the sheep from the goats; 33 and He will put the sheep on His right, and the goats on the left.

34 “Then the King will say to those on His right, ‘Come, you who are blessed of My Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world. 35 For I was hungry, and you gave Me something to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me something to drink; I was a stranger, and you invited Me in; 36 naked, and you clothed Me; I was sick, and you visited Me; I was in prison, and you came to Me.’ 37 Then the righteous will answer Him, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, and feed You, or thirsty, and give You something to drink? 38 And when did we see You a stranger, and invite You in, or naked, and clothe You? 39 When did we see You sick, or in prison, and come to You?’ 40 The King will answer and say to them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did it to one of these brothers of Mine, even the least of them, you did it to Me.’

41 “Then He will also say to those on His left, ‘Depart from Me, accursed ones, into the eternal fire which has been prepared for the devil and his angels; 42 for I was hungry, and you gave Me nothing to eat; I was thirsty, and you gave Me nothing to drink; 43 I was a stranger, and you did not invite Me in; naked, and you did not clothe Me; sick, and in prison, and you did not visit Me.’ 44 Then they themselves also will answer, ‘Lord, when did we see You hungry, or thirsty, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not [a]take care of You?’ 45 Then He will answer them, ‘Truly I say to you, to the extent that you did not do it to one of the least of these, you did not do it to Me.’ 46 These will go away into eternal punishment, but the righteous into eternal life.”

Did you forget an atheist sits in the chair of St. Peter's?


35b5a4 No.538020

>>537882

Catholics here are great at grabbing cherry picked verses, but awful at following up. Let's say these verses did say that works are necessary for salvation. What of those that explicitly say that works are not counted to us? Following the logic, then it's necessary to say that the verses contradict each other and therefore Biblical inneracy is impossible, the therefore, Christianity is null and void.

We who believe scripture, in that salvation is given by grace, through faith, by the taking of the holy spirit who brings us good works; we have no issue with this. As Peter says, faith without works is dead. An honest faith therefore has good works as its fruit, but does not buy salvation through these works, because Christ has already paid the debt.

so what's the point of sacraments then

>>538020

There's nothing wrong with simply bringing another Scripture as long as you make sure it's clear why both are true.

In this case they haven't done so.

Acts 16:31: And they said, Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ, and thou shalt be saved, and thy house.


577b9c No.538068

>>538066

whats the difference between works and sacraments? you're not justified by works or by sacraments


f01e2d No.538069

>>538068

Work (in Pauline usage) means "expression of human will", while a sacrament is an earthly sign of a heavenly promise.


577b9c No.538074

>>538069

so, those protestants who do not conduct sacraments are in error?


f01e2d No.538075


17f6c5 No.538104

>>538020

It's funny because both sane Protestants and Catholics all say that Faith and Works should work in perfect unison to illustrate a faith that is alive. And shun people who think they can just do nothing to change their lives and then claim they are Christian.

>Did you forget an atheist sits in the chair of St. Peter's?

To be fair the chair of St. Peter has been filled by a manifold of sinful indivduals, from thieves to whore mongers, there is always corruption within the catholic church, but they so far always managed to get the ship somewhat back on track
