***I'm already saved.***

We would say if there is no behvior change your profession is questionable.

In other words, the Samaritan's help to the man who had been robbed, would go unrewarded by God.

So is that your motivation?!? "To be rewarded by God for all your "good" works? If that is one's motivation I would worry about the underlying issue of greed.....

As it is written: "So you also, when you have done everything you were told to do, should say, ‘We are unworthy servants; we have only done our duty.’” Luke 17:10

Jesus said to him, “If you want to be perfect, go, sell what you have and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow Me.” -- Mt 19:21
