My question is a digression from the original discussion. A man can do nothing to save himself by himself. A man who has sinned his whole life can be saved at the last minute by accepting Christ and trusting in his mercy. Doesn't this imply that a Christian never really needs to do anything good and is free to be as evil as he feels, as long as he repents before dying? CURIOUS
