Matthew 16:27
No where are we told we are judged by His works.
Titus 3:5
2 Tim 1:9
Eph 2:8-9
Romans 4:5
2 cor 5:21
Only people who are judged for their works are the spiritual dead ones .. Rev 20:11-15

They profess to know God, but in works they deny Him, being abominable, disobedient, and disqualified for every good work. Titus 1:16
The abominable will have their part in the lake of fire.
Let's connect these two dots...
... in works they deny Him, being ABOMINABLE!
But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death." Revelation 21:8

Only a head's up...we're in the Kingdom of God as Christians yet we must remain in...point, if someone happens to have enough truth (especially dealing with "faith" & "repentance"), not so deceptively mixed with error, and that truth is viewed as fallacious to insane because doesn't align with one's teachings and/or view not having an agape for that truth, then wham, gong, IIThess.2:11, 12 kicks in...
The upside is if no one here has that truth, we'll all be o.k.
Old Jack just thinking out loud again.
BTW I don't have that truth.
The Sheep in Matt 25 didn't even know they were serving Jesus. They were deemed righteous by their actions, not their beliefs.
They were blessed by the Father before they performed their righteous deeds however - see vs 34. The deeds came because of the blessing - the blessing didn't come because of the deeds.... The text clearly reads that way.

You are misreading. Jesus knew them because they came to him when they served those in need.
The difference between the sheep and the goats is their actions, not their beliefs.
The difference between the sheep and the goats upon each one's passing is the former believed where the latter disbelieved when confronted with the truth of the Word.
Old Jack's opinion
That's not what the bible says. That is just your dogma speaking.
Those that served Jesus didn't even know they were doing so.
