works are the consequence of salvation and not its justification. They are the sign of a sincere and grateful faith.

Any supposed faith that does not in fact lead to such behaviors is not genuine, saving faith." Methodist evangelist Phoebe Palmer stated that "justification would have ended with me had I refused to be holy." While "faith is essential for
