I think it reflects a fundamental misunderstanding of Catholicism, which teaches that to be saved, Catholics must perform works of mercy

I sure hope I don't come up one work short! Better get out there and earn my salvation!

"When I was hungry you gave me to eat, when I was thirsty you gave me to drink, when I was in prison you visited me......come, enter into the kingdom of my Father"

Are these not "works" of grace and faith through love?

"When I was hungry, you did not give me to eat, when I was thirsty you did not give me to drink, when I was in prison you did not visit me.....depart from Me"
