My Bible tells me:

Eph 2:8-9
8 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, 9 not of works, lest anyone should boast.
NKJV

If Faith is NOT of works, then HOW CAN YOUR GOOD WORKS "help God" save you from the penalty of your sins?
There is one poster here who is 'stuck' on the idea that doing good works (KEEPING the commandments, DOING STUFF) must happen IN ORDER TO BE SAVED.

My Bible (GOD through HIS WORD) does NOT SAY THAT.
