Mark has never said that one is saved by one’s works. But Mark does say that one must have works. ...Sorry to burst the bubble.

And who's works are those?

Our works are a natural result of our relationship with Christ. They are not some we produce but something that He produces through us. He is the vine. We are the branches. Without Him we can do nothing. Would you disagree?

To a certain extent. We cannot do good works without Him. Yet, we can choose not to do good works, or even to do evil. Evil is not of God; it is of man.
