[quote=Anonymous]In response to OP, why would God reward faith/trust in him as opposed to good behavior? Assuming you are asking this in reference to Christian docrine, then the answer is that no one is good enough for God, and only those who see that and rely (aka trust/have faith) in his mercy can be 'transformed' by him. The short of it is that if you think you can "make it on your own" by your own moral muscles, you won't, because even assuming you behave perfectly, you will commit the sin of smugness (pride) by thinking you are good enough. If you think you are NOT good enough, and that you can "make it" only because of God forgiveness and mercy, then you will, because Jesus has done for you what you could not do by yourself. [/quote]
