I as a catholic believe both. but a lot of christians think you just have to have faith and you can go to heaven. they think all you need to do is accept jesus as lord savior, and your good to go. you can be a murderer even, and not repent but still accept jesus and be good.
i think we seek salvation by both. in the OT it was all works, and when a prophet came they were merely a prophet. i think jesus wasn't just merely a prophet, he was more, but i still think we have to be good people to go to heaven. if hitler was saved, he still doesn't deserve heaven (unless he repents, and if hell wasn't eternal and i were god i might let him in later on)
i'm a liberal and would love it to be by just faith but i just don't see how it can be.
so what do you think?
