Jesus made it clear that belief, repentance, and the good works of a changed life are necessary to be saved:-Ye believe in God, believe also in me. John 14:1-Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. Matt 4:17-Except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. Luke 13:3-Go and sin no more. John 8:11-Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.-(of the servant who hid his talentThou wicked and slothful servant......Cast ye the unprofitable servant into outer darkness-(to the servants who invested their talentsWell done, good and faithful servant...enter thou into the joy of thy lord.-Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Matt 7:20-Not everyone that sayeth unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Matt 7:21-Therefore whosever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock. Matt 7:24Servants are expected to work. Why would the Bible repeatedly refer to people of God as His servants if their belief is not expected to affect the works they do?Belief alone is not enough. James 2:19 says that even the devils believe, and tremble.Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. James 2:17
