Omooba77:
Does Good Works Qualify One for Heaven?

livingchrist:
God is the one who brings people to Christ. It is not human will. Anyone who wants the truth would be brought to Christ.

Many Christians were born in a different religion but God called them out, my grand mother is an example she was born and raised in idolatry all her life but before she died God brought her out to recieve christ, so those who are God's own no matter the religion or culture or times in which they were born will come to know Christ for it is God's doing.

Does it mean all muslims of the word and non-Christians must accept Christ before they can make heaven??

Many people practice religion, yes, but the question is, do they indeed seek God?

The simple answer is that the vast majority of those who are of the lost sheep of Israel also happen to be gentiles, many of them unaware that their ancestors were descended from the blood of Jacob.

jesusjnr2020:
Let's hear from the Judge of all the Earth, Himself, what He has to say about this:

Matthew 16:27 (KJV)

For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

Matthew 25:34-40 (KJV)

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.

So if the Words of Jesus, the One who paid the price for man's sin was anything to go by, good works could indeed qualify one for heaven.

God bless.

NO
Good works doesn't qualify anyone for Heaven
If good works was all we needed to enter Heaven then Christ didn't have to come to die for our sins,but the problem isn't our 'works' but our nature
Christ came to die for us,so we could be birthed into a new nature (Christ's nature/identity),after being born again our works now become Valid

But faith in Christ is what gets us to Heaven

Kobojunkie:
Jesus Christ did not die for your sins but instead for the sins of the Lost sheep of Israel, the ones who He was sent to.

According to Jesus Christ, your works is what will decide whether you will enter into Heaven or not.- Matthew 25 vs 31 - 46 - that is what will be judged on that "last day".

Kobojunkie:
The simple answer is that the vast majority of those who are of the lost sheep of Israel also happen to be gentiles, many of them unaware that their ancestors were descended from the blood of Jacob.

Indeed, Jesus Christ's mission is to the lost sheep of Israel, Israel's children who were scattered, by God, to all the ends of the earth - to every tribe, every tongue, and every nation out there.
The lost sheep of Israel are gentiles too who have the blood of Jacob in them. And they are to be found in every nation. That is what God said make clear even right in His Law of Moses. He would scatter them, and He would, later on, gather them back when the time is right. So, as Jesus Christ made clear through His teachings and the fact that He called His followers to be fishers of men implying that He did not come for everyone, He is indeed sent only to the lost sheep of Israel, and the man standing right next to you right this minute could be one of them.

Who are we to judge? God is just unquestionable! Just do your good deeds and follow His instructions in the Bible not men's instructions, then ask for mercy

CodeTemplar:
If I take N100k from Mr À fraudulently and use just N30k of it to help Mr B and Mrs C, have I done a good work?

Good works is part of it but righteousness, faith and godliness cannot be compromised to do seemingly good works.

Righteousness2:
Good works are good , will open ways for you ,but will not give u Eternal Life in Heaven.

Eternal Life in Heaven is simple. A Genuie relationship with JESUS Christ is the ONLY way to Heaven.
