Grace is needed in this life and in the life to come. For Christ died for our sins, and rose the third day according to the scriptures. Without the gift that Christ brings to us, we cannot go home to that God who gave us life. Without Christ we would be forever damned to toil in hell. Without Christ we could not sing to His priases and become one with Him and His Father, our Father.
Some would have you believe that we can overcome the blocks of death all by ourselves through works. This is not so, for that would be denying Christ of what He did for us. That would be saying that we can do it all for ourselves and we wouldn't need a Savior. That is not the case.
The Bible clearly states that we are to be saved through grace not of works. (Ephesians 2:8-9)
