Works Versus Fruit - 2

There is a major difference between Christianity and other religions. All other religions are meritocratic. Salvation is by works.

In Christianity, salvation is by faith. God the Holy Spirit works in us to bear fruit. How do we grow? Just like the plants, or babies. We get our nutrients (the Bible) and we grow.

Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. (John 15:4 KJV)
