My quote was: 38 And John answered him, saying, Master, we saw one casting out devils in thy name, and he followeth not us: and we forbad him, because he followeth not us. 39 But Jesus said, Forbid him not: for there is no man which shall do a miracle in my name, that can lightly speak evil of me. 40 For he that is not against us is on our part., 41 For whosoever shall give you a cup of water to drink in my name, because ye belong to Christ, verily I say unto you, he shall not lose his reward.

   But the works do not save ,  

Mat 7:21   Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

     Mat 7:22   Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?

     Mat 7:23   And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

  Rom 15:5   Now the God of patience and consolation grant you to be likeminded one toward another according to Christ Jesus:     
Rom 15:6   That ye may with one mind [and] one mouth glorify God, even the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.

I don't think you understand the implication of verse 41.

Think: Joseph of Arimathea when you read it.

Think: French underground during WWII when you read it.
