What works could you do to become righteous before GOD?
John 6:28-29 Then they said to Him, "what shall we do,that we may work the works of God?"
Jesus answered and said to them, "This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent."
Any assembly that teaches you must do works to be saved is not listening to our LORD and SAVIOUR. If the assembly can't be shown how wrong they are flee.
The counter-quote is of course from the Epistle of St. James.
