I thought I answered that. Works is NOT "anything you can do"...it's anything you can do APART from the gospel. Thus if it pertains to the gospel we must obey it. Not the verse I posted about obedience from the heart.

What does the Bible say about baptism? Repenting of our sins, and God forgiving those sins...thats grace. Obedience are the things we do (which incudes water baptism) to maintain His grace in our lives. No, believing isn't enough. But, its a start!

Is that a trick question? Is honesty a must when answering?
