Our inheritance is in Christ; His grace isn't earned; walking out our faith is what we are all called to do. We are to do good works; all of our works will be judged, nowhere has that ever been denied. We are saved by the One who became sin and paid the prices for our lives.

Galatians 3:12-14
English Standard Version
But the law is not of faith, rather “The one who does ...[text shortened]... g of Abraham might come to the Gentiles, so that we might receive the promised Spirit through faith.
So Paul was in error when he used the word 'reward' then, because clearly you do not believe that eternal life is a reward. Jesus as well was in error when he said

And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. Blessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie. (Revelation 22:12-15 KJV)

Jesus said -
- the reward is eternal life in the Kingdom of God for those who do his commandments
- the punishment for evildoers is damnation.


As usual I take my doctrine from the words of Christ. You do as you please. Not interested in rehashing these things over and over.

Why didn't you answer my other question? Will people who do the good works you have talked about are they going to be accepted by God even if they deny Jesus, ignore Jesus, have nothing to do with Jesus? If good works are, as you put it, the gospel of Jesus Christ, are these works all that God requires accordingly?
