Well you certainly did when you responded to my question about which of your works earn your salvation.

You would think that you’d have attempted to correct me if it wasn’t true.

Well, that and Roman Catholic doctrine is that you have to ‘merit’ eternal life for yourself, at least according to the RC catechism, and I have to guess that you believe that.

So, DO you earn your salvation by your works, or are you trusting in the grace of God to save you?

Another example of setting up a straw man since I have never said anything about earning salvation through works. That said, anyone who fails to do the will of the Father as is clearly revealed throughout the Scriptures will not enter the kingdom of heaven. Who says so? His Son says so and He is quoted by St. Matthew (matt 2:21). You want to refute what I’m saying? Take it up with Jesus!
