Rev 22:12 | TNotes | STEP | 22:12 Christ is coming soon . . . to repay all people , not just on the basis of their profession of faith, but according to their deeds (see 2:23 ; 11:18 ; 14:13 ; 20:12-13 ; see also Prov 24:12 ; Matt 16:27 ; 2 Cor 5:10 ). Not every statement of belief is genuine (John 2:23-25 ); faith will show itself in actions (Jas 2:14-26 ). We are indeed saved by the grace and power of God in Christ. Our works do not save us, but they do indicate the seriousness of our confession and provide a just basis for our ultimate reward or punishment.
