1 | Ephesians 2:9-10 Good works ? | Rom 1:15 | Mommapbs | 109388 | ||
Greeetings Ken John! This is one of my favorite verses as my son illuminated its application during a very special time in his life (He was undergoing chemotherapy at the time.)He told me that this verse revealed to him that God had a plan for his life; he knew this because "he was still here." He said, if our work is done, we should be happy to go home to Heaven!" Anyway, we are GOD's WORKMANSHIP, created in Christ, (we are a new creature 2 Cor 5:17) for the purpose of "good works" - that God has prepared for us to do. (I like to remember that only God is good. see Luke 18:19) The conversion (new creation) comes first (Eph 2:8-9) and then the Lord does HIS work through us! Everything depends upon God! Anything we do apart from Him is like wood, hay and straw - read 1 Cor 3:9-15. Remember that Jesus told us, "Apart from me you can DO nothing." John 15:5 (emphasis mine) I hope this helps!

2 | Ephesians 2:9-10 Good works ? | Rom 1:15 | CDBJ | 109390 | ||
That was an interesting post and when we look at it that way the same thing was reflected in the life of Christ, he said in essence that the price was paid and then he died physically; his work here was completed in the physical body. John 19:30 When Jesus therefore had received the vinegar, he said, It is finished: and he bowed his head, and gave up the ghost. CDBJ |
