How do we know that our works follow us after death?

Answered in 1 source

The Scriptures affirm that our works will follow us as evidence of God's grace in our lives, rather than as a means of obtaining salvation.

In Revelation 14:13, it states, 'their works do follow them.' This indicates that the works of a believer serve as evidence of the transformative work of grace in their lives. While these works do not earn salvation, they reflect a faith that is alive and working through love (Galatians 5:6). They follow us as testimonies of God's redeeming mercy and grace, marking us as His chosen. Thus, our works are significant not for the purpose of securing our place in heaven but as a manifestation of the grace that has already saved us.
