      Yeshua (Jesus) Followers work hard for God! But, they do so moment to moment only after Holy Spirit draws them into relationship with Jesus and they choose to follow Him. They do their "good works" to glorify God out of thankful love for the salvation that He already has given them because of His loving grace and mercy (unmerited favour). And they do this only as he lives his life out through them as Jesus said in John 15:5 at http://diigo.com/0jvfh . Good works done otherwise i.e., in "the flesh" (pre-salvation habitual leanings), have NO value.

    Ephesians 2:8-10 Almighty God clarifies His saving promise to us who believe in Him and what He has already done for us through Jesus' sacrifice on our behalf because of His great love for all men and women ...no matter what they've done. gfp (2012-02-04)
