I dont know everything... infact I hardly know anything!
I heard, (gossip sucks) that some sects of Christianity only believe that one can attain heaven through faith alone. I heard that others believe the only way to get to heaven is works. (to this day no one has specified what "works" means, so im getting frustrated hearing that phrase) I was wondering which sects believe in Faith alone, or Works alone, or which faiths enforce both, perhaps none?
I'm going to assume "works" means charity, evangalism, caring acts. I also wonder why its so bad to do works for faith? I mean... you can have faith, and you can do works, but if they're all for the glory of the one you believe in, why is it bad either way? The bible has MANY examples of faith being the most important thing, and works being the most important. (needless to say the bible, and other books, is full of contradiction on those two subjects) So i'd like to have yall's opinion... do share *smiles*
