Are we saved by faith alone, or do we need works, too?

---

according to Matthew 15:18 "This generation honors me with their lips, while their heart is far from me."
works are indeed a necessary component of one's faith.

[noy]

James 2:17
New International Version (NIV)

"In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."

good works should be the fruit of the Christian faith.
so both is essential if we talk about salvation.

[hunt99]

In order to see ourselves true colors. I think we need both. Faith combinations of your works and your doings or activities. It's not enough, if it's only the words comes from your tongues because it can only be seen through your own actions and your doings.

[How'sThat?]

busy gamay, musta nman mo diri?

I'll let this one go.

Grace is a GIFT from God. A gift that enable us to live a holy life.
The problem aneh kay dili neh pareha ug kwarta nga mo-buka lang ka sa imong kamot.
Instead, you should open your heart to let that grace enter your life.

Unsaon? Ask forgiveness of the sins committed, AT THE SAME TIME, heal those wounds that you have caused, and promise to live a good life.

From there, you need to pray constantly and ask graces all the time.

But it's not about not committing any sin. As God's people, each one of us a role here on earth.
So, you have to DO the Will of God.

Unsay requirements para maka kuha ang tawo sa gasa sa Grasya? buhat o pagtuo?

siodenz si redhorse niingon na nga free gift ang grace lagi pero dunay time sa ato kinabuhi nga wala ta sa state of grace labi wala nato napuy-an ang living faith manifested diha sa mga bating binuhatan (sin) nga atong nabuhat. pareha ra na sa akong analogy about free offer to teach you something that you need to nurture it. ang grace naa na, pero its up to you on how to sustain and endure it in your whole life through faith nga makita sa buhat. kay kanang ephesian nag refer na sa grace through faith but doesn't mean faith alone..

ang inyong nasabtan man gud kung naa na grace dili na buhaton..unsa man na robot? you need to do your part nga in line sa imong faith. unsaon man ni nato pagkabalo? way lain kundili makita sa buhat nga matod pa sa bible ang tawo mahibaw-an sa iya bunga, unsa man ng bunga,iya binuhatan. tan awa ni sa Colossians 1:10" so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God.

ang grace dili na buhat ang pag accept sa grace maoy buhat or good work, nakuha nimo..?

it appears nga kamo kinahanglan mo sabot pag ayo anang ephesian in historical/grammatical context sa verse itself. I guess dinhi ang difference....ug dili lang diha matapos, ang mga verses tanan sa bible is in harmony to each other...so apila si James nga nag sulti " James 2:24 which says "King James Bible (Cambridge Ed.)
Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only."..

kinsay nag ingun nimu nga if naa nay grasya di na buhaton? nag buot buot ka? basin wa ka nakasabot ani nga phrase: "GOOD WORKS ARE THE MANIFESTATION OF TRUE FAITH".

unsay meaning anang WORKS imung pasabot beh para maklaru, hatagi mig sample.

Manifestation is the word.

Pwedi ra sad ang word nga Fruit, kay ang punu-an sa bayabas di man mamunga ug santol
