What is the faith of the thief on the cross written in Luke 23:42-43 (part 6 of 7)
Philippians 2:12 Wherefore, my beloved, as ye have always obeyed, not as in my presence only, but now much more in my absence, work out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
We have to work and the work we have to do are the good works God want us to do, you cannot be saved if you are not going to do good works, your faith may be enough for salvation if you are not going to live more than an hour but living for a day or more, or a month more, or year more you must do good work
After you have recieve your faith, you have to grow in Christ and growing in Christ you have to learn how to do good works, the good works are the example of the Lord Jesus Christ because he is an example for us to do good works, not for only who we love but for our enemies.
Matthew 5:44 But I say unto you, Love your enemies, bless them that curse you, do good to them that hate you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you;
And that good work would qualify you for salvation
Matthew 25:32-40 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
And he shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?
And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
That good work may even be a salvation for those that didn't have faith
