Works Works Works
The topic of works in scripture can be confusing since there are several different kinds. A work or deed is simply something a person does, but the reason or purpose for it is important. There are good works and evil deeds which anyone can do. Then there are works of the Law of Moses. There are works of obedience and love. We must be careful to differentiate among them. Scriptures: Matthew 7:11; Galatians 5:19-21; Deuteronomy 4:5-8, 11-14; 7:6, 11; Galatians 2:16; 3:11-12; 2 Thessalonians 1:8; John 14:15, 21; Titus 2:14; 3:1, 8, 14; James 2:17; John 15:8
