G. GOD WORKS AND FORMAL SERVICE ALONE WILL NOT SAVE

Mat 5:8  Blessed are the pure in heart:  for they shall see God.

Mat 5:20  For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed
the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter
into the kingdom of heaven.

Mat 15:8  This people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and
honoureth me with their lips; but their heart is far from me.
Mat 15:9  But in vain they do worship me, teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men.

Mat 19:16  And, behold, one came and said unto him, Good Master, what
good thing shall I do, that I may have eternal life?
Mat 19:17  And he said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none
good but one, that is, God:  but if thou wilt enter into life, keep the
commandments.
Mat 19:18  He saith unto him, Which? Jesus said, Thou shalt do no murder,
Thou shalt not commit adultery, Thou shalt not steal, Thou shalt not bear
false witness,
Mat 19:19  Honour thy father and thy mother:  and, Thou shalt love thy
neighbour as thyself.
Mat 19:20  The young man saith unto him, All these things have I kept
from my youth up:  what lack I yet?
Mat 19:21  Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go and sell that
thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:  and
come and follow me.
Mat 19:22  But when the young man heard that saying, he went away
sorrowful:  for he had great possessions.

Mat 22:11  And when the king came in to see the guests, he saw there a
man which had not on a wedding garment:
Mat 22:12  And he saith unto him, Friend, how camest thou in hither not
having a wedding garment? And he was speechless.
Mat 22:13  Then said the king to the servants, Bind him hand and foot,
and take him away, and cast him into outer darkness; there shall be weeping
and gnashing of teeth.

Mat 22:35  Then one of them, which was a lawyer, asked him a question,
tempting him, and saying,
Mat 22:36  Master, which is the great commandment in the law?
Mat 22:37  Jesus said unto him, Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all
thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind.
Mat 22:38  This is the first and great commandment.

Mar 7:6  He answered and said unto them, Well hath Esaias prophesied of you
hypocrites, as it is written, This people honoureth me with their lips, but
their heart is far from me.
Mar 7:7  Howbeit in vain do they worship me, teaching for doctrines the
commandments of men.

Mar 10:17  And when he was gone forth into the way, there came one running,
and kneeled to him, and asked him, Good Master, what shall I do that I may
inherit eternal life?
Mar 10:18  And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? there is none
good but one, that is, God.
Mar 10:19  Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not
kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Defraud not, Honour thy father
and mother.
Mar 10:20  And he answered and said unto him, Master, all these have I
observed from my youth.
Mar 10:21  Then Jesus beholding him loved him, and said unto him, One thing
thou lackest:  go thy way, sell whatsoever thou hast, and give to the poor,
and thou shalt have treasure in heaven:  and come, take up the cross, and
follow me.
Mar 10:22  And he was sad at that saying, and went away grieved:  for he had
great possessions.

Luk 6:49  But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a
foundation built an house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat
vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

Luk 18:9  And he spake this parable unto certain which trusted in themselves
that they were righteous, and despised others:
Luk 18:10  Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and
the other a publican.
Luk 18:11  The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank
thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or
even as this publican.
Luk 18:12  I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess.
Luk 18:13  And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as
his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to
me a sinner.
Luk 18:14  I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than
the other:  for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that
humbleth himself shall be exalted.

Luk 18:18  And a certain ruler asked him, saying, Good Master, what shall I
do to inherit eternal life?
Luk 18:19  And Jesus said unto him, Why callest thou me good? none is good,
save one, that is, God.
Luk 18:20  Thou knowest the commandments, Do not commit adultery, Do not
kill, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Honour thy father and thy
mother.
Luk 18:21  And he said, All these have I kept from my youth up.
Luk 18:22  Now when Jesus heard these things, he said unto him, Yet lackest
thou one thing:  sell all that thou hast, and distribute unto the poor, and
thou shalt have treasure in heaven:  and come, follow me.
Luk 18:23  And when he heard this, he was very sorrowful:  for he was very
rich.

Joh 3:1  There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the
Jews:
Joh 3:2  The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know
that thou art a teacher come from God:  for no man can do these miracles that
thou doest, except God be with him.
Joh 3:3  Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee,
Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
Joh 3:4  Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can
he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?
Joh 3:5  Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be
born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
Joh 3:6  That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of
the Spirit is spirit.
Joh 3:7  Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
Joh 3:8  The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound
thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth:  so is
every one that is born of the Spirit.

Rom 2:28  For he is not a Jew, which is one outwardly; neither is that
circumcision, which is outward in the flesh:
Rom 2:29  But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is that
of the heart, in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praise is not of
men, but of God.

Rom 3:20  Therefore by the deeds of the law there shall no flesh be
justified in his sight:  for by the law is the knowledge of sin.

Rom 8:9  But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the
Spirit of God dwell in you.  Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he
is none of his.

Rom 9:31  But Israel, which followed after the law of righteousness, hath
not attained to the law of righteousness.
Rom 9:32  Wherefore? Because they sought it not by faith, but as it were
by the works of the law.  For they stumbled at that stumblingstone;.

Rom 10:3  For they being ignorant of God's righteousness, and going about
to establish their own righteousness, have not submitted themselves unto the
righteousness of God.

Rom 14:17  For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but
righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost.

1Co 1:18  For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish
foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.
1Co 1:19  For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise,
and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
1Co 1:20  Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the
disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?
1Co 1:21  For after that in the wisdom of God the world by wisdom
knew not God, it pleased God by the foolishness of preaching to save them
that believe.
1Co 1:22  For the Jews require a sign, and the Greeks seek after
wisdom:
1Co 1:23  But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a
stumblingblock, and unto the Greeks foolishness;

1Co 3:11  For other foundation can no man lay than that is laid,
which is Jesus Christ.

1Co 13:1  Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, and
have not charity, I am become as sounding brass, or a tinkling cymbal.
1Co 13:2  And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand
all mysteries, and all knowledge; and though I have all faith, so that I
could remove mountains, and have not charity, I am nothing.
1Co 13:3  And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and
though I give my body to be burned, and have not charity, it profiteth me
nothing.

2Co 10:18  For not he that commendeth himself is approved, but
whom the Lord commendeth.

Gal 2:16  Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law,
but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that
we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the
law:  for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Gal 3:10  For as many as are of the works of the law are under the
curse:  for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all
things which are written in the book of the law to do them.
Gal 3:11  But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God,
it is evident:  for, The just shall live by faith.

Gal 5:4  Christ is become of no effect unto you, whosoever of you are
justified by the law; ye are fallen from grace.

Gal 5:6  For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing,
nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

Eph 2:8  For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of
yourselves:  it is the gift of God:

Php 3:3  For we are the circumcision, which worship God in the
spirit, and rejoice in Christ Jesus, and have no confidence in the flesh.
Php 3:4  Though I might also have confidence in the flesh.  If any
other man thinketh that he hath whereof he might trust in the flesh, I more:
Php 3:5  Circumcised the eighth day, of the stock of Israel, of the
tribe of Benjamin, an Hebrew of the Hebrews; as touching the law, a Pharisee;
Php 3:6  Concerning zeal, persecuting the church; touching the
righteousness which is in the law, blameless.
Php 3:7  But what things were gain to me, those I counted loss for
Christ.
Php 3:8  Yea doubtless, and I count all things but loss for the
excellency of the knowledge of Christ Jesus my Lord:  for whom I have
suffered the loss of all things, and do count them but dung, that I may win
Christ,
Php 3:9  And be found in him, not having mine own righteousness,
which is of the law, but that which is through the faith of Christ, the
righteousness which is of God by faith:

2Ti 1:9  Who hath saved us, and called us with an holy calling, not
according to our works, but according to his own purpose and grace, which was
given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,

Tit 3:5  Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to
his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the
Holy Ghost;

Heb 11:6  But without faith it is impossible to please him:  for he that
cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that
diligently seek him.

1Pe 1:18  Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible
things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition
from your fathers;
