    Grace is a gift from God and is not earned by any one person. What you do is not as important as accepting Christ. If you accept God into your life and believe through Christ will you know the father and enter heaven, what you do outwardly will reflect your inner commitment to God.

    So by accepting God's grace (a gift, is not earned), the Holy Spirit will fill you and your conscious will guide you to do what is right.
