Not really confusing, our works do not earn our salvation but they are required for it.

Consider an invisible bridge over a chasm with a fiery river running through it, you must not only have faith that it is there but you must also be willing to walk over that invisible bridge as if it were visible in order to bring that faith into the living reality which is salvation.

I know that is what the poem Footprints in the Sand suggests, but is that actually a scripturally based idea? What is the Biblical basis of it?

Frank - If our works are required for salvation, as you just said, then works are required for salvation. How else would you explain your opening sentence in post #80?
