No, doing something is not a work by Biblical definitions.
You can accept a free gift and it not be a work.
A work is something you can demand payment for.
You are confusing being active and passive with grace and works.
See Rom.4 for further information.
Can't answer the logic, can you? My own testimony collapses your argument.
But it is not a "free gift" is it Dec? Your theology says God foresaw your correct choice and rewarded you for it.
If it was indeed a FREE gift NOTHING would be necessary would it? Demanding any act makes it wages due
Define grace and mercy for me deck ...
