Based on what Lori posted, it would appear that she believes she is actually in control over her own destiny and can be saved by works. The apostle Paul, among others, is very clear on that: "For by GRACE are you saved THROUGH FAITH, and NOT OF WORKS, lest any man should boast."

The entirety of Scripture, even in the Renewed Covenant , it is both.

“Hear and obey”

“Faith withOUT works is dead”

And pretty much the entire rest of God's Word also says that works without faith is dead.
