Yes, if you are saved your good works will be rewarded. However, good works don't keep you saved.It is true that if a person thinks "I am going to do this good deed or that one and that will get me into God's Kingdom"--that person is lying to himself.
However, good deeds are necessary. This whole faith versus deeds thing is addressed in the book of James and elsewhere.
And many times in the Bible it says we are judged by our deeds. In James 2:12 it speaks of having faith but not works
It says Faith without works is dead
