Matt 25: 43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
Eph 2:9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.

Those two scriptures are in harmony

What??????????? Harmony???

In Matthew those people are being admonished for not doing works and in Eph. they are told not to do any works...

I also notice you didn't quote verse 10, I wonder why?
Eph 2: 10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.

Because the good works we are ordained to perform do not come from us as in the verses in Matthew...Any good works we do are as filthy rags to God...The good works we do come from God...

You need to let the Holy Spirit teach you some scripture...

That and works are proof of salvation and commanded to us anyways.

But if Catholics admit that we do good works without having to earn salvation from them, their arguments about us being filthy sinners falls apart.

True.

and in Eph. they are told not to do any works...

The Holy Spirit would never lead anyone to that conclusion about Ephesians 2. Paul is emphasizing the role of Jesus Christ in salvation. He is exhorting them to remember from where their salvation will come, Jesus Christ. They are never told, "not to do any works."

8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

It's a pretty simple formula. If you don't do the works which He has given us to do, you won't have sufficient faith for Jesus to impart His Grace. Being obedient to God builds faith and that's what works are for.

That's why Matt 25 and Eph 2 are in perfect harmony.

If you still can't see that, then maybe you should: ...let the Holy Spirit teach you some scripture...

As you put it. :)
