Ephesians‬ ‭2‬:‭10 - Good Works

Thoughts on the Bible 10 August 2023 Hits: 616

“For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand so that we would walk in them.”
Ephesians‬ 2.10‬‬

There is work to be done that is right in front of us. “Good works” requires judgment and wisdom. Good is defined by God and what He has said in the Bible. The world’s definition of “good” is the opposite of God’s. The only way you can discern good from bad and apply a proper value is to read the Bible for yourself.

Verse

Matthew 22:15-22

Then the Pharisees went out and laid plans to trap him in his words. They sent their disciples to him along with the Herodians. “Teacher,” they said, “we know that you are a man of integrity and that you teach the way of God in accordance with the truth. You aren’t swayed by others, because you pay no attention to who they are. Tell us then, what is your opinion? Is it right to pay the imperial tax a to Caesar or not?”

But Jesus, knowing their evil intent, said, “You hypocrites, why are you trying to trap me? Show me the coin used for paying the tax.” They brought him a denarius, and he asked them, “Whose image is this? And whose inscription?”

“Caesar’s,” they replied.

Then he said to them, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.”

When they heard this, they were amazed. So they left him and went away.
