The context tells us whether the salvation is physical or spiritual. There are two distinct salvations , one being physical as you pointed out and spiritual as Jesus spoke about and the apostles wrote about.

Then we agree. God saved us by His mercy so we could do the good things He prepared for us to do. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

God is the Author of salvation and I never denied that! Works before salvation are filthy rags. It’s only after one is saved that his works count as something. Works alone produce nothing. However faith produces good works. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It also says a man is justified apart from works! Which is correct? Romans 3 for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God, being justified as a gift by His grace through the redemption which is in Christ Jesus; Where then is boasting? It is excluded. By what kind of law? Of works...

That is only one side of the coin. You need to look at both sides. Paul quotes Isaiah after he says “For if Abraham was justified by works, he has something to boast about, but not before God. For what does the Scripture say? “ Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as...
