What do you think,will your so called"good works" enough for you to be saved and go to heaven eventhough you donot have true faith in God,eventhough you worship and served false gods and goddess?
For examples:
1. You do all the possible good works you know but you donot believe in god or you are an atheist.
2.You do all the possible good works you know but you worship and serve satan.
therefore,what will justify a man,by his good works or by his true faith?

People use this example a lot in attempts to try to get me to change my beliefs. They know that I do a lot of "good works" but that my religious beliefs aren't the same as theirs, and they think that pointing out to me that my good works won't save me will make a difference.
The problem with this question is the "false faith" and "false gods" ideas. You believe your God is real, and other people believe their Gods are real, or that no God is. I don't serve false gods, I serve my gods. I rely on them to see to my afterlife. So I don't worry about whether "good works" will save me at all.

Both are needed by man to be able to be saved.You can not do good if you are serving Satan.Now if you are serving a god that is pretending to be true although its false,its not your fault you will be judged by your good works.
