YOU are NOT saved by works....rather, works are a SPIRITUAL REFLEX of true belief...
* "works" means God's Law & a changed heart--not man made rules & regulations...
Yea, a man may say,
Yea, a man may say,
Thou hast faith, and I have works:
shew me thy faith without thy works,
and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
James 2:18
