To believe on Christ is to obey him. Jesus told Nicodemus that one must be born of water and of spirit. We are buried with him in baptism. If we believe in Christ we obey his teachings. To simply say I believe without obeying is dead.
Works is the execution (the act of obeying) of being obedient to what we are told to do. Faith without works is dead. The Ethiopian Eunich after hearing the gospel stated "here is water, what hinders me to be baptized?" He acted (works) on what he was told to do.
Rom 6:4Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
