Thanks to a good post by Steve M., I got to pondering a question I thought I would pose on here. What makes someone a "good" Christian?

Here is one answer from Ann Coulter: “To believe with all your heart at every moment that God loved a wretch like you so much that he sent his only son to die for your sins.”

What about works? Don't works (like caring for the poor, reading our Bible consistently, praying diligently) factor into whether or not one can be considered a good Christian?

What say you?
