Abraham was considered righteous because he trusted God but yet His faith drove Him to obedience.Faith without works is dead, but yet man is incapable to save himself by his own goodness.

Amen ... it goes to say if repentance and baptism are results of faith ... and it goes to say that they are not the causes of our salvation ...
Our salvation is caused by the Work of the Lamb and when we place our faith in him these works of faith will result .... however ... this will not happen w/ a life dead in sin ... it must be quickened to life ... regenerated prior to showing the fruit of faith.
