Question: Should those who have faith in Christ seek their salvation through their own works, or anywhere else? Answer: No, everything necessary to salvation is found in Christ. This is an important question in the New Testament because the Law of God is given in the OT and the Hebrew people who were coming to faith in Jesus came with a high regard for the Law of God. However some took this too far and believed that there was something in the law that led to salvation. Despite versed like 1 Samuel 15:22; Hosea 6:6; Micah 6:6–8 Example Luke Luke 18:9–17

Question: Since we are redeemed by grace alone, through Christ alone, must we still do good works and obey God’s Word? Answer: Yes, so that our lives may show love and gratitude to God; and so that by our godly behavior others may be won to Christ The good that we do in the world is not motivated by a selfish desire for salvation - but motivated by love and gratitude for the salvation that has been given.
