[Salvation]

Grace through faith.

Yes, the faith comes first, but then the works are manifested out of the faith?

Do you practice any of these works as quoted in Romans 12: 9-21? I bet you do.

[Salvation]

I was mistaken. That should have been Romans 12: 6-21.

Romans
Chapter 12

6

Since we have gifts that differ according to the grace given to us, let us exercise them: ⁴ if prophecy, in proportion to the faith;

7

if ministry, in ministering; if one is a teacher, in teaching;

8

if one exhorts, in exhortation; if one contributes, in generosity; if one is over others, ⁵ with diligence; if one does acts of mercy, with cheerfulness.

9

Let love be sincere; hate what is evil, hold on to what is good;

10

love one another with mutual affection; anticipate one another in showing honor.

11

Do not grow slack in zeal, be fervent in spirit, serve the Lord.

12

Rejoice in hope, endure in affliction, persevere in prayer.

13

Contribute to the needs of the holy ones, exercise hospitality.

14

⁶ Bless those who persecute (you), bless and do not curse them.

15

Rejoice with those who rejoice, weep with those who weep.

16

Have the same regard for one another; do not be haughty but associate with the lowly; do not be wise in your own estimation.

17

Do not repay anyone evil for evil; be concerned for what is noble in the sight of all.

18

If possible, on your part, live at peace with all.

19

Beloved, do not look for revenge but leave room for the wrath; for it is written, "Vengeance is mine, I will repay, says the Lord."

20

Rather, "if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals upon his head."

[kingpins10]

Sure I do. But so do some many nonbelievers. Yet they are not covered by grace.
