Since salvation is NOT OF WORKS, that means:
Works can never get you saved.
Works can never “keep you saved.”
Works can never “prove you are saved.”
Works have nothing to do with salvation whatsoever. Since works do not contribute to salvation, they can never be made a condition of salvation before, during, or after belief.
Works are separate from salvation. Keep them separate.
Romans 11:6 KJV
"And if by grace, then is it no more of works: otherwise grace is no more grace. But if it be of works, then it is no more grace: otherwise work is no more work."
