Galatians 2:16a
“knowing that man is not justified by the works of the law but by faith in Jesus Christ.”
Good deeds will not save us, through they are marks of a mature Christian, only faith in Jesus Christ and Him alone will justify us before the Almighty.
The Truth
“For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast.” (Ephesians 2:8-9)
