That comes from this verse:

Matthew 6
19"Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. 20But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven,

Apparently our experience in the eternal world can be made richer or poor depending on how we conduct our lives here on earth.

If one is saved through faith, then judgment re how one treats one's brothers would be irrelevant, or at best peripheral.

And then there's this:

James 2

20You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless?

But there have been generations of arguments about exactly what that one means.
