In other words just believe and then start working your way to heaven.

Tandi, we do
what?
Romans 4:4 Now to him that
worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.
5 But to him that
worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.
Romans 9:32 Wherefore? Because they sought it
not by faith, but as it were
by the works of the law. For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man
is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be
justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
Ephesians 2:8 For
by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9
Not of works, lest any man should boast.
"In other words just believe and
then start working your way to heaven."
We do
what?
Grace and peace sister, you got a long row to hoe.
