Christ has indeed made the Gospel plain - as have others throughout Scripture. Why, then, do Catholics insist that it is Christ + works which save? It is NOT, as Scripture elucidates time after time. I do wonder, then, why change Christ’s words? Why indeed?!

First and foremost, Catholics believe and have always believed that your works cannot save you. You are NOT saved by Christ+works --> please do note make up stories about what we believe

Christ alone saves you -- Paul says "work out your own salvation with fear and trembling". What this is, is clear -- Christ said "repent, believe, be baptised, eat of His flesh and blood and endure to the end"
