“Now I’m not Catholic, I’m a Methodist,” Clinton said, “but one of the things that we share is the belief that in order to achieve salvation we need both faith and good works.”

That's not what the Bible says. "What saith the scripture? Abraham believed God and it was counted unto him for righteousness.

Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt. But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

Even as David also describeth the blessedness of the man, unto whom God imputeth righteousness without works." [Romans 4:3-6.]

And this isn't the only place in the Bible that makes it clear that salvation is by grace through faith. The are so many it is difficult to pick just a few:

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that is not of yourselves. It is a gift, not of works, lest any one should boast." [Ephesian 2:8,9]

Salvation, then good works. "For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus (i.e. saved) unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them."

We must be saved. We should do good works. "Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified." [Galatians 2:16]

Conclusion

Hillary isn't saved. She's still trusting in her own works to save her and is hellbound.

We do good works because we are saved.
She is clearly not saved and does no good works.
How can she get up there and say those things after defending partial birth abortion 24 hours earlier?
She is soulless.

I notice you carefully avoided quoting James Chapter 2.

Of course, Hillary's "good works" are mostly a stench in God's nostrils.

She sold her soul to Satan for power a long time ago... probably at Wellesley or via that radical leftist minister who got ahold of her in high school.
