I decided to take a step of faith that I dont believe people are saved by works as bible says not of works lest any boast because christ compares to His perfect standard that it is never good enough that you need the righteousness of christ in your stead for what will be any one hope if one was to die when he did not do good to all people. I think timothy keller also believes we are saved by christ righteousness that the video good news to poor is just our responsibility what we should be doing.
That I believe good works are just to be saved on death that to stand confident on that day just when you meet Him to be saved on death and have prayer answered as book of john says you need to do good to your neighbor and jesus wasnt saying in the parable of the good samaritan a person has to do good deeds just to love God fully and others but said to go and do likewise that one should do good deeds like one but not to be saved. So I believe all should trust in christ as saviour which He is also one Lord according to what is necessary to do to be saved to repent and share gospel and pray if christ shows all christians can be saved.
As I said before one must confess christ before men to preach to people you see that should do often as you must not be lazy servant since you dont know when you will die if you have opportunity to call to christ but only need to do what is possible if you did not do often but should as you dont know when you will die not to have opportunity to call to christ that that is not considered a work as though your own works are one required to give salvation but this one is not a work as much as it is response to faith that is necessary to save souls that works otherwise are not needed to save souls though save a life.
For faith without confessing it if you can has no merit because you must show that you value christ that if you can you would to show love to God and to show to others the way of salvation that that is all paul said must do that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart God has raised Him from the dead you will be saved but that is only because one should that shows repentance but God also accepts any if they cant to call on His name as He said not willing for any to perish but not all have chance to call on the Lord.
