Don’t confused Salvation is by grace.

Where you end up is by how much light you have in your lamp!

You may dismiss the degree of glory but one can only go so far as they can receive light!

Is it light or oil?

Don’t confused Salvation is by grace. I don't know what you guys are trying to say here.

well, Christians believe that where you end up is by following the light of the world, Jesus.

When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." John 8:12

In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. There came a man who was sent from God; his name was John. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so that through him all men might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light. The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world.John 1:4-9

Resty, there is not one single thing we can do to save ourselves or to glorify ourselves. We have to GIVE UP and follow the light, Jesus. If we trust Him, He will save us. Anything we try to do on our own is insulting to God - like filthy rags.

That's what Christians know is true.
