I guess they don't have this in their Bibles:

However, to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the wicked, his faith is credited as righteousness, just as David proclaims the blessedness of the man to whom God credits righteousness apart from works: (Romans 4:5,6)

It appears to me that some people have difficulty figuring out the difference between doing good works to obtain salvation, and doing good works BECAUSE of salvation. Actually, it’s a very simple concept. Even a 5 year old can understand it. I wonder why so many adults don’t get it? Spiritual blindness maybe?

Settles the whole issue right there, doesn’t it?
