Every false religion of the world thinks their good works will be weighed in the balance and if the good tips in the right direction, more than the bad they will get into heaven, sadly they don't understand that no sin can be in the presence of God.
Our God will not allow ANY sin in His presence, He is far too Holy to allow ANY. What kind of god allows 49 percent sin in His presence. I will tell you.....no god at all, a false god in the minds of those who do not understand the work of Christ on the cross.
Those who believe one can lose their salvation are engaging in a false religion the same as the pagans who are attempting to get their scales to tip in the right direction, based on their good deeds.
1 Peter 1:16
"because it is written, "YOU SHALL BE HOLY, FOR I AM HOLY."
But how can that be? How can we be Holy as He is Holy if the scales don't count? The answer is simple, only Jesus Christ is holy and He comes to live in those who have confessed their sinfulness and desire for Him to come to live in them while changing us into His likeness.
It is not our own righteousness that gains us heaven, not one bit, but it is the righteousness of Christ in us that gains us access to the Father in heaven.
