AboutMarco Expertise I am a catholic physicist and I am married with four children. I can give a scientific
proof of the existence of the soul. I am very interested in the following issues: faith
and science, rational proof of the existence of God, christianity versus other religions,
the Bible, protestantism versus catholicism, miracles. Probably you will find interesting
my answers to questions such as: "How can I know that God exist?", "How can I know that
catholicism is the true religion?", "Why does evil exist?", "Who created evil?", "Why does
Hell exist?", "Why did Jesus have to suffer on the Cross?" , "If God knows everything,
why did He create those souls who go to Hell?"

Answer Dear Connor,
I am here to give my personal answers; I am not here only to quote the Bible. Since you write that you do not want my answers, I cannot answers your questions.
I will give you only some verses from the Bible about your question:
" works getting you to heaven instead of his grace alone?"
1 Peter 1:17 And if you address as Father the one who without partiality judges according to every man's work, then pass the time of your stay on earth in reverent fear:
Here Peter says that God judges us according to our works ;
in fact our works reveal whether our faith is true or false ; true christians cannot be incoherent and hypocrital. True christians love Christ and consequently keep His Commandments.
Mt 19:16 And, behold, one came and said to him, Teacher, what good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
19:17 And he said to him, Why do you ask me what is good? there is no one good but One: but if you wish to enter into life, keep the commandments.
19:18 He said to him, Which ones? Jesus said, You shall not murder, You shall not commit adultery, You shall not steal, You shall not bear false witness,
19:19 Honour your father and your mother: and, You shall love your neighbour as yourself.
Jesus says explicitly that if we wish to enter into life we must keep His commandments.
Mt 7:21 Not every one who says to me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.
If a man does not do the will of God, he will not enter into the kingdom of heaven.
7:22 Many will say to me on that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name cast out devils? and in your name done many miracles?
7:23 And then I will declare to them, I never knew you: depart from me, you who work iniquity.
Observe that Jesus does NOT say “depart from me you unbelievers”, but He says “depart from me you who WORK iniquity”
1Corinth
6:9 Do you not know that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived: neither the sexually immoral, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexual offenders,
6:10 Nor thieves, nor the covetous, nor drunkards, nor slanderers, nor swindlers, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
Ephesins
5:3 But sexual immorality, and all impurity, or covetousness, must not even be named among you, as is befitting saints;
5:4 Nor let there be filthiness, or foolish talk, or coarse jesting, which are not proper: but rather giving of thanks.
5:5 For this you know: that no sexually immoral or impure person, or covetous man, (for such a man is an idolater,) has any inheritance in the kingdom of Christ and of God.
5:6 Let no man deceive you with vain words: for because of these things the wrath of God comes upon the sons of disobedience.
Galatians
5:19 Now the works of the flesh are obvious; they are; sexual immorality, impurity, licentiousness,
5:20 Idolatry, witchcraft, hatred, strife, jealousy, fits of rage, selfishness, dissensions, factions,
5:21 Envy, drunkenness, orgies, and the like: of which I forewarn you, as I have also warned you in the past, that those who do such things shall not inherit the kingdom of God.
