This is Jesus teaching the same thing as James: merely claiming faith is not true faith, as true faith will always produce fruit.

One is justified by faith, and faith *always* produces works.

Works cannot produce true faith.

You need to harmonize this verse (and James) with the rest of the Bible. You can't contradict Paul and Peter and Jesus.

Are you suggesting that those who truly trust in the worthiness of Jesus Christ will behave as if they have a license to sin?

If you are being rescued by Jesus Christ, you will seek to flee sin (having granted a new nature that hates it) and achieve ever greater obedience out of gratefulness and love.

Do you only do good deeds out of fear of being condemned to hell? That seems like a coercive, evil way for God to "inspire" Christians.

If I truly believe this yes. The question is do I? Some days perhaps more than others as faith is uncertain by its very nature.

I think the point I am trying to make is that the language of "average" you use. Most people are not interested in knowledge or truth or theology and the sect doesn't really change that. An average person is likely to say they are RC without caring about religiosity. While I am RC, I do not claim t...

If they are religious, they will acknowledge salvations is through Jesus Christ who is the way the truth and the life. More likely the average person won't be religious enough to even fully considered the routine of their daily lives, even if they attend church and follow the tradions of the liturg...
