Purpose Statement: Who is saved and how?
To some extent what we think about heaven, who is going, and why, can determine how we act towards others or at least affect our attitudes concerning others. We don't know very much about "heaven," and unfortunately, the Bible bears conflicting witness on just how we get there. Paul emphasizes salvation by faith while Jesus, for every one statement implying salvation by faith, makes ten or more statements emphasizing works. The simple truth of this dilemma is that true faith and real works are inseparable (James 2:18, 24, 26).
