Mormons think they can get to Heaven on good works alone.
Christians know thats not true.

Not quite.

Christ's (their chrict) 'atonement AND 'good works'.

(See #73 item 3 on the list.)


Doctrine and Covenants
Section 18:46
 
And after that you have received this, if you keep not my commandments
you cannot be saved in the kingdom of my Father.

Actually; this is BACKWARD...


The Second Book of Nephi

Chapter 25

Nephi glories in plainness—Isaiah’s prophecies will be understood in the last days—The Jews will return from Babylon, crucify the Messiah, and be scattered and scourged—They will be restored when they believe in the Messiah—He will first come six hundred years after Lehi left Jerusalem—The Nephites keep the law of Moses and believe in Christ, who is the Holy One of Israel. About 559–545 B.C.


23 For we labor diligently to write, to apersuade our children, and also our brethren, to believe in Christ, and to be reconciled to God; for we know that it is by bgrace that we are saved, after all we can cdo.
