Wright seems to be wanting to get us back to "mother Church Rome"

Acts 20:21 I have declared to both Jews and Greeks that they must turn to God in repentance and have faith in our Lord Jesus

Ties into eternal rewards based upon quality of good works NOTHING to do about eternal life itself

neither that passage not Acts 2:38 states at all that water baptism saves us, as Peter very clear to link that Baptism being the turning and trusting in Jesus as being our savior and Lord what saves us period

When NT Wright stated dogmatically that we have totally misunderstood paul since and during the reformation, and he now will correct us, that shows you that its very bogus, and when he stated that water baptism is the entry way into salvation, and that God will use our good works to see if can...

Actually only 3, before the fall, Covenant of works, Old One, then final new One

Even that saving faith is the gift of Gods towards his very elect, so how can God credit us for anything, as from start to finish, salvation is of and by the Lord
