The father burns the branches that don’t produce fruit. How do we produce fruit, we stay in him. How do we stay in him… by following his commands. If it didn’t matter if we followed the commands or not, then there would be no point to. Don’t be fooled by the lie that “just believe” and your good. Believe (Faith) has always been the way to get favor (Grace) from God. But you don’t stay in favor by being disobedient. And his laws are the same then and now, he doesn’t change. Jesus didn’t come to do away with the law but to fulfill every command and prophecy.

If “doing good works”(obeying the law((Torah))) didn’t matter…then we would’t need Christ to make it possible for us to turn back to God’s way, and thus coming back to God. He says draw nearer to me, and I will draw near to you. NOT the other way around. Although he will call you to his truth, it’s always up to you to follow the path. We can do all things through Christ means by walking the path he has set, we can accomplish the goal. If you’re doing what ever you want and calling eval what ever you want to call, then you can’t obtain the goal on your own.

So yes, you must also DO but doing doesn’t “save” you, trust does. But “I will show you my faith by my works”…

Fun fact, the Hebrew word for “faith” is emuha, which properly translates to faithfulness. Now go learn and do faithfulness.
