Not quite what I had meant, because most religious people are not able to surrender from their religious works because of their pride in all that they have done. Their identity is wrapped up in their religious zeal that the idea of surrendering & ceasing to do them for obtaining salvation is "mind-boggling" to them so in spite of the vanity and the lack of assurances from which they had to believe, many don't come to that form of repentance by believing in Him in order to be saved.
Believers that get hoodwinked into working for their salvation are still saved whethor they realize it or not because of His promise for believing in the Lord Jesus Christ and that God raised Him from the dead, but they are labouring in unbelief, and thus building on that foundation of works that deny Him as having saved them as well as able to be their Good Shepherd in helping them to live as His from which it was written that the just shall live by faith in the Son of God & all His promises to us.
But even if a hoodwinked saved believer are labouring in unbelief in doing works to help obtain their salvation, they can go before that throne of grace and ask for wisdom & discernment in knowing the truth that the works of catholicism are not necessary for salvation because Jesus really is the Saviour after all for simply believing in Him & as a result, they are saved.
That is why Jesus Christ "IS' the Good News for man: not a "possible" Good News, but "IS" and why we can testify of Jesus as our Saviour because we are saved. He is able to keep on forgiving "saved" believers without the Mass. 1 John 1:9
Oh, I see what you mean. Thanks for repeating it.
