Summary: Sometimes Catholics are accused of teaching a false gospel of "works" -- the idea that we can somehow earn our salvation. Quite the contrary, we believe the gospel is a gospel of Grace -- because we can do nothing apart from him. Grace is what puts us into a right relationship with God, and is applied to us through the sacrament of baptism and through our faith (trust) in Him. But our faith is made real and evident (or consummated) through works of love, as the Epistle of James reminds us. These "works" are not our own (as if we can boast of our own righteousness) -- but Christ's work done through us!
