[6] Who will render to every man according to his deeds: Works, not faith is the key? Hmmmm..... No, because believers have the righteousness of Christ credited to their account so when God looks at them, being in Christ, He sees us as righteous as Christ. So the born again believer has no concern about doing works of the Law. They've been done for him and given him as a gift.
So we're judged not on our works but on Christ's perfect works credited to our account.
