Those works that we do are a result of our salvation not a part of our salvation. We have had this argument many times in the past. We can add nothing to the finished work of Christ on the cross for our salvation. That is accomplished by Christ’s work alone, good works that we do come after and in response to our salvation.

Not so!
Nobody is saved but the first fruits.
We must “endure to the end” as Yeshua stated in Matthew 24.
Our works are the result of our faith, as James clearly said several times, being “Doers, not Hearers,” as Paul emphasized in Romans 2, unto our justification on the Day of Trumpets, as he explained to the Corinthians in ch 15.
Salvation is the changing of our corruptable bodies into specially created immortal Sons. This is exactly what Nicodemus was squirming about in John ch 3. We will be able to travel invisibly like the wind, as Yeshua explained to him.
