EPHESIANS 2:10
10)For we are his
workmanship, created in
CHRIST JESUS unto
good works, which GOD
hath before ordained
that we should walk in
them
For we are His workmanship,
evidence of grace, we have to
be fashioned anew by GOD
before we can do anything
right, His own master work, a
work created in CHRIST
JESUS, we are GOD’S
workmanship created in
CHRIST JESUS, that means,
when a man believes in
JESUS CHRIST, GOD creates
him in CHRIST, that GOD
quickens the Spirit of the
believer and make his Spirit
alive, whereas the believers
Spirit was dead to GOD, GOD
creates it anew and makes it
alive to GOD ,,reborn from
above, spiritually
transformed , renewed, it
means that GOD causes the
believer to be born again
Spiritually, which means GOD
places His divine nature into
the heart of the believer,
making a new creation of the
believer, creating a new
person from the believer,
which means GOD gives the
believer the Holy Spirit, we
are created to do good works,
believers is GOD
workmanship, GOD work of
arts,, GOD masterpiece ready
to be used for good works, in
order that we may have
inclination engaged them, and
to delight in so doing; and
may give ourselves up to
this, and to be continually
engaged in them, and to
delight in doing so.
The Believer shows that he is
GOD’S workmanship by the
life he lives and display, works
are evidence of Salvation,
doing good is not an option
for believer, it is the very
nature of the believer, GOD’S
people give ample evidence of
the power of a new life which
operates in them, if a man is
created in CHRIST , if GOD
has truly worked in him, the
person does good works, his
very nature dictates it , is the
very nature, he is not perfect
he fails but keeps coming to
GOD and failing upon his
knees, believing and asking
forgiveness, and getting back
to do all good he can, he a
new creature created in good
works, prepared for us
beforehand taking paths
which He set, so that we
would walk in them, the
believers are subject of Divine
grace, a proof of the true
origin of good works, before
the foundation of the world it
was ordained that whosoever
shall be saved by grace
should walk in good works,
which is habitual tenor of the
life; GOD has appointed the
believer beforehand ,that he
should work in good work ,it
is to spend in the atmosphere
of good works, living the good
life which He prearranged and
made ready for us, GOD has
appointed good work to be
done by His people, it is His
will not only to do them but to
continue to do them, and that
we should do them, this
being pre-ordained of GOD
MATTHEW 5:16
16)Let your light so
shine before men, that
they may see your good
works; and glorify your
FATHER which is in
heaven
Let your light so shine before
men in such a way that they
may see your good deeds and
moral excellence, the
believers light is their
character, the believer is to
undergo transformation he is
to be like CHRIST, more and
more to reflect the light of
CHRIST , Light is clear and
pure, it is clean, that is good,
right and true , light
penetrates, it cuts through
and eliminate darkness , it
enlightens , it enlarges, it
guides, it direct the way to
go, lead along the right path,
light strip away darkness , it
guide person’s vision and
knowledge , the light reveals,,
it open the truth of the
Gospel, which he
communicated , the spiritual
knowledge of the mysteries of
grace, which he had favored
them with, were to be openly
declared , and made manifest
before men, as believers are
placed as light of the world,
they were to hold forth, in the
most open and conspicuous
manner as the light and life.
The believer has light, the
light is already within him, he
is the light of GOD upon
Earth, CHRIST says, let your
light so shine, believers can
refuse to let their light to
shine, he may turn it off, and
refuse to turn it on, shade it,
darkened it,, turn it away,
direct its beam to other
direction, if we live for
CHRIST, we will glow like
lights, showing others what
CHRIST is like, we hide our
light, by being quiet when we
should speak,, going along
with the crowd, letting sin dim
our light, ignoring the need of
orders, by being a beacon of
truth, believers should not
shut their light off from the
rest of the world
THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR
GOOD WORKS
That they may see your good
works: believers are to let
their light to shine in other to
show forth good works, let
your light shine means let
your good works be seen ,
they are show their good work
to the world meaning your life
generally their generous and
active character, their zeal
and fervency; their plainness
and openness; their
integrity ,sincerity,
faithfulness, courage,
diligence, industry in
preaching the Gospel; their
strict regards to truth, the
honor of CHRIST and the
good of the soul
AND GLORIFY YOUR FATHER
And glorify your FATHER,
believers are to let their light
shine in other to stir men to
glorify GOD, the glory of GOD
is the primary aim of all
believers, the very way GOD is
glorified is by the light good
work of believers shinning
before men, when the
believer’s get out of
darkness and embrace light,
they are to glorify the
FATHER, which is in Heaven;
that is, that when the
ministration of the Gospel has
been received, for the
illumination of the mind of
men, to a thorough conviction
of their state, and for their
regeneration conversion,
sanctification, and give praise
to GOD, for sending such
Gospel to show them the way
of Salvation; that the word
has been made useful to
communicate spiritual life and
light, joy and comfort, of our
FATHER which is in heaven,
believer are not only the
glorify GOD they are to cause
those who are in darkness to
glorify Him, the aim and
purpose of our lives should be
to glorify our GOD, we should
be GOD centered
MATTHEW 19:21
21)JESUS said unto him,
if thou will be perfect,
go and sell that thou
hast, and give to the
poor, and thou shalt
have treasure in heaven;
and come and follow Me
SELF-DENIAL
JESUS said unto him, if thou
will be perfect, means
completely righteous, having
no worldly lust in all its part,
finished, having no part
wanting, the step to enter
GOD’S kingdom is to give all
you are and have to CHRIST,
CHRIST know exactly what
the young man needed, his
rejection of CHRIST showed
this, he was hoarding wealth
instead of distributing it, GOD
had giving him that he might
have to give to others, but he
was failing to love and help
his neighbor anywhere close
to what he should, what
JESUS CHRIST said, if you
want to be perfect, that is,
really obey the commandment
and receive heaven, then
demonstrate to all publicly
and without question that you
love your neighbor: go and
sell your possessions and give
to the poor, then follow Me, in
our struggle to protect the
glorious truth that man is
saved by grace and grace
alone, we often forget and
neglect another great truth:
to follow CHRIST is to serve
and minister to our neighbor,
to follow CHRIST is to deny
ourself completely all that we
are as well as all that we
have, when we love our
neighbor as our self, we show
that we completely love GOD,
if we don’t love and minister
to our neighbor above self
then we do not love GOD.
LUKE 9:23
When we deny self by giving
all we are and have, then and
only then do we receive
heaven and the treasures of
heaven, to deny self, is to give
all we are and have, is a hard
saying; but CHRIST demand
it, our attempt to soften it do
not annual CHRIST demand of
given to the poor and needy
JOHN 15:7-8
7)If ye abide in Me and
My words abide in you,
ye shall ask what ye will,
and it shall be done unto
you
8)Herein is my FATHER
glorified, that ye bear
much fruit; so shall ye
be My disciple
If you abide in Me, and My
word abide in you, abiding in
CHRIST is here explained by
His words , if you adhere
steadfastly to the doctrine,
which I have taught you,
firmly believing My
declarations, diligently
obeying My precept, and
affectionately embracing and
relying on My promises,
abiding in the
disciples/believer, which
means the Gospel and the
truth of it, this word abides
when it come with power, and
becomes the engrafted
words, in the believers heart,
the word of CHRIST must
remain abide in the believer
if you remain in Me, the
thought is that a believer
must take the word of
CHRIST and study and learn
them, have his thoughts and
desires controlled by them, be
motivated and be controlled
by them.
The branch is to attached to
the vine, it remains and
abides in the vine(JESUS
CHRIST) dwells and lives and
never faces a moment, he
lives, and walks in the very
presence of CHRIST, never
facing a moment when he is
not attached and walking in
CHRIST, a believer walks in
constant fellowship and
prayer, he is always remaining
(abiding) in JESUS CHRIST,
the vine is always nourishing
the branch, always sending its
life-giving food and drink to
the branch, CHRIST is always
sharing His life giving
nourishment with the
believer, if the teachings so
abide with the believer so as
to control His thoughts and
ideas , remains in the believer
as to guide your inspiration
and regulate your affection
and life, then, because the
indwelling of His word in them
would secure the harmony of
their asking with the Divine
will
YE SHALL ASK WHAT YE
WILL
You shall ask what you will,
and it shall be done unto you,
the true Disciple/Believer of
CHRIST, who abides in Him,
and in whom His word abides,
will not anything but what is
proper to be done for them,
according to the will of GOD,
they will especially ask for
Spiritual blessings , which
they know it is His will, they
should ask and receive; and
will ask them in the way which
He hath prescribed , namely
sincerely , earnestly,
persistently , and in the way
of repentance, faith, and new
obedience; in the name of
JESUS CHRIST, by answering
prayer and meeting the needs
of the genuine believer
HEREIN IS I AM GLORIFIED

you, and ordained you,
that ye should go and
bring forth fruit, and
that you fruit should
remain: that whatsoever
ye shall ask of the
FATHER in My name, he
may give it you
You have not chosen Me, but
I have chosen you , as their
LORD and Master, Savior and
Redeemer, I chose you and
select you as an individuals, I
destined you to accomplish
work dear to Me and essential
of My Kingdom,
ORDAINED YOU
I have appointed and placed
and purposefully planted you,
set you apart,
BEAR FRUIT
The supreme purpose of
believers is to go and bear
fruit, they are chosen and
appointed by CHRIST, and
given the very purpose of
CHRIST Himself: to go into
the world and bear fruit
among men, so that you
would go and bear fruit and
keep on bearing, that you
should be rich in good works;
faithful and successful in
spreading My Gospel, it is not
to be idle, or useless, or
simply to seek pleasure, it is
to do good, and to spread as
far as possible the rich
Spiritual blessings which the
Gospel is fitted to confer on
mankind, to go forth as
ambassador for CHRIST,
proclaiming the glorious
gospel
THAT YOU FRUIT SHALL
REMAIN
And that your fruit will remain
and be lasting, their efforts
were not to be like those like
the false teachers whose
result will soon vanish away,
that the effect of their labor
will be permanent on
mankind, that their Gospel will
have a deep and hold on
people, and ultimately to fill
the world
THAT WHAT SO YOU ASK
FROM THE FATHER
That the granting of prayers
brings and its continuance by
going to bring forth fruit we
enter into that relation with
GOD from which proceeds the
prayer in the name of the Son,
so that whatever you ask of
the FATHER in My name as
My disciples/believer, I He
may give you wherefore as
they would stand in need of
Divine assistance, they are
assured them of it
LUKE 3:11
11)He answereth and
said unto them, he that
hath two coats, let him
impart to him that hath
none; and he that hath
meat let him do likewise
He answered and said unto
them, he that hath two coats,
the remedy of selfishness is
the root of evil, let him impart
to him that hath none, John
the Baptist, stirred people, the
people wanted to know how
repentance and to show that
their repentance is genuine,
the demand is to do good
would affect their lives, just
what a changed life would
mean, what kind of fruits
should they bears? John
answered in the most
practical terms, and he does
not want to put upon them
the ceremonial observance
but to love of our neighbor,
which involves the love of
GOD, and so the whole law.
The man that is converted
was to love and care enough
to share his materials goods
with those who were in need,
giving out your clothing and
food, the basic necessity of
life, the given was to be
sacrificial, the giver was to so
love and care so much that he
would be gripped with
compassion and
unselfishness, he would give
what he had such fruit would
be evidence of repentance, of
a life truly changed, of a man
who was truly seeking GOD to
forgive his sin, let him
likewise; that is, he that has a
sufficiency of food, and more
than enough for himself and
family, let him give it freely
and cheerfully to the poor and
needy, for such sacrifice GOD
is well pleased; and when
such acts of kindness are
done in faith, from the
principle of love, and with a
view to the glory of GOD, they
are fruits of grace, and such
as are meet for repentance

Sell that you have, sell your
property, exchange it for that
which you can use in
distributing and give alms, to
the poor and needy ,
Provide for yourselves bag
which wax not old,, a treasure
in heaven that fails not,
CHRIST would have His
followers
put their money up
in other bags, not in such that
rot through age, or are worn
out, and are full of holes
through use, GOD gives
treasures that do not age, fail,
nor corrupt; neither can they
be stolen, what JESUS said is
revolutionary ; sell that you
have and give to the poor,
once our needs have been
meet, we are give what we
have to meet the need of
others,, it does not matter
what position or profession or
kind of income we have, we
are to begin meeting the
needs of the world, believers
are to seek good profession
and jobs, so that he can have
more to give to the needy
EPHESIANS 4:28, the believer
is to fill his bag, bank account
with the gifts or giving of
money and deeds of helps,
such will never age, the
believer is to secure the
treasure of GOD’S a and
souls won in heaven, these
treasure will never fails nor
corrupt or stolen
Everything on this earth ages,
fails, corrupts and can be
stolen, but the man who uses
only what he needs and then
gives the rest fills his bag will
real money and treasure, that
never age, never fails, never
corrupt and never stolen

45)And sold their
possessions and goods,
and parted them to all
men them down at, as
every man had need
The early believers were a
people who were together
and who share in ministry
being together , because they
were of the same call, mind,
spirit and purpose , the
believers sold their
possessions property,
particular real estate land,
houses, vineyards moveable
and unmovable and goods,
that is, they sold as much as
was necessary, the rich sold
their estates and divided
them among the poor and
needy , because it was
commanded by CHRIST,
which in most cases was deny
and ignore by the church
denial of the truth does not
do away with the truth,
What CHRIST demands that
we give all we are and have
and follow Him, is that we
give in order to produce the
means of providing for the
desperate needs of the
ravaging world, according as
any man had need ,and parted
them to all, they distributed
them to supply the need of
their poorer brethren according to their necessities,
as every man have needs.
In our struggle to protect the
glorious truth that man by
grace and grace alone saves,
we often forget and neglect
another great truth: to follow
CHRIST is to serve and
Minister to our neighbor, to
follow CHRIST is to deny self
completely, all that we are as
well as all that we have, when
we love our neighbor as
ourselves, then we show that
we truly love GOD, if we do
not love and minister to our
neighbor (above self), then we
do not love GOD, it is the love 
of the world that makes us
unwilling to give up the
possessions we have
obtained, the comfort,
recognition, power, position
and pride, by refusing to take
and give what we have, we
make the fatal mistake of
showing by demonstrating
that we love the things of the
world more than we love
people; that man prefer
hoarding and extravagance
living, that man love the world
more than we love the hope
for eternal life, man love
position,, recognition and
power of the world’s
possession more than love for
CHRIST
Possession pulls a man away
from GOD LUKE 12:15-21 ,it
is difficult for a person who
has possessions to enter into
the kingdom of heaven,
because there is a pull or
lure, an attraction, a force, a
power that reach out and
draws aways any one who
look at or possess wealth,
there is a forceful pulls that
will enslave any man who
hoards and fails to turn to
GOD by giving to the poor
and the needy of the dying
world
ACTS 9:36-40
36)Now there was at
Joppa a certain disciple
named Tabitha, which by
interpretation is called
Dorcas: this woman was
full of good works and
alms deeds which she did
37)And it came to pass
in those days, that she
was sick, and died;
whom when they had
washed, they laid her in
an upper chamber
38)And forasmuch as
Lydda was nigh to
Joppa, and the disciples
had heard that Peter
was nigh to Joppa, and
the disciples had heard
that Peter was there,
they sent unto him two
men, desiring him that
he would not delay to
come to them
39)Then Peter arose and
went with them, when he
was come, they brought
him into the upper
chamber; and all the
widows stood by him
weeping, and showing
the coats and garments
which Dorcas made,
while she was with them
40)But Peter put them
all forth, and kneeled
down, and prayed; and
turning him to the body
said Tabitha, arise, and
she opened her eyes;
and when she saw
Peter, she sat up
There was at Joppa a noted
Seaport in the neighborhood ,
now Jaffa lying on the
Mediterranean Sea, about
forty miles from Jerusalem,
and the nearest Maritime
Town to it, it is mentioned in
the Old Testament by the
name of Japho
JOSHUA 19:46 and was the
place to which the Materials
for building Solomon’s temple
were brought in floats by Sea,
and carried from thence by
land to Jerusalem, it was here
that Jonah took ship for
Tarshish, JONAH 1:3
A certain female disciple ,
named Tabitha her Jewish
name ,and Dorcas her Greek
name , which signifies a gazelle
This woman was fully
committed to CHRIST, a very
faithful and devoted disciple,
full of dong good , she was
rich in good works doing all
kind of good, serving, was
constantly employed in doing
good to those who need
help ,her works both many
and good, and alms deed,
which she did; she was very
kind and beneficent to the
poor and needy, she wrought
with her hands much for their sakes,
And it came to pass in those
days, while Peter was in those
parts, and particularly at
Lydda, which was near, that
she fell sick and died: fell ill
with some disorder, and died
of it, whom, when they had
washed, among most people
it has been customary to
wash the body before it is
buried, they prepared her in
the usual manner for
interment in the upper
chambers,
They sent two men to ask
Peter, to come and seek the
LORD in behalf of Dorcas,
that he might come to
comfort those that were
concerned in the great loss of
so good a woman, and, it
may be, not without some
hopes of her recovery by a
miracle from Peter, desiring
him, that he would not delay
to come to them, then Peter
arose and went with them,
Doubtless GOD incline him to
do so, intended to work an
extra ordinary miracle by him,
for the manifestation of the
truth and glory, and when he
came to Tabitha’s House  
they brought him up to the 
upper chamber, where she
was laid, a deep sorrow was
expressed for Dorcas, the
dedicated believer
And all the widow’s whom
benefited by her kindness,
who had been relieve by her
compassion , these were
poor widows , to whom
Dorcas had been very liberal,
stood by him weeping
showing and pointing to the
clothes they were actually
wearing the clothes, garment
she had made in her when
she was with them.
The source of power to raise
the dead is JESUS CHRIST,
Peter put them out of the
room, that he might pray the
more earnestly, without
distraction or interruption;
there are there incidents in
the Scripture were the dead
were raised in similar
circumstances,
JESUS and Jairus daughter

in which he chose to be

assured that the power of
CHRIST would be exercised in
raising of it, said Tabitha
arise; which was spoken in
the name of JESUS CHRIST is

opened her eyes

1)There was a certain
man in Caesarea called
Cornelius, a Centurion
of the band called the
Italian band
2)A devout man, and
one that feared GOD
with all his house, which

people, and prayed to
GOD always
3)He saw in a vision

justly, and morally towards all
men, a benevolent and
charitable man: one who
gave to the poor, gave
generously, a praying man: He
was totally unlike most of the
Gentile of his days, he was
not worshipping false gods,
he had looked at the Jewish
religion(Judaism) and seen
that it was head above all
other religion in its worship of
one true GOD, its teaching of
righteousness and justice and
morality, Cornelius did not
become a Jewish worshipper,
he was not circumcised, he
could learn from them and
their religion.
ACTS 20:35
35) I have showed you
all things, how that so
laboring, ye ought to
support the weak, and
to remember the words
of the LORD JESUS,
how he said, it is more
blessed to give than to
receive
I have showed you all things,
in everything that respect
preaching, teaching and the
proper mode of life, and the
duties of the office by my
own self-denial and toil, Paul
labored he is craftsman a
tentmaker, by working and
not accepting money from the
churches, he sought to teach
by example, how others have
to act, I have given you an
example, that you shall do as I
have done unto you, how that
so laboring, laboring as I have
done, that they should labor
with their hands as he did,
setting this example, and
ministering in this way to the
needs of others, you have to
support the weak, to provide
for the need of the sick and
feeble members of the flock,
who are unable to labor for
themselves denote the poor,
the needy and he infirmed
And remember, to call to mind
for encouragement, and with
the force of command, the
words of the LORD JESUS
these words are among those
not recorded in the scripture
all His saying and instruction
JOHN 21:25
It is more blessed to give, it is
a higher privilege; it tends to
be more to the blessing of the
individual who gives freely, it
is blessed in reward that shall
result from it, those who give
from a pure motive of GOD,
will bless, they will be
rewarded, not only in this life,
but in eternity

13)Distributing to the
necessity of saints;
given to hospitality
Distributing to the necessity
of saint, the believer is to
meet the needs of people
unselfishly, he is to give
generously, he is to practice
hospitality, he is to open the
door of his home to believers
who are in need all believer
must use hospitality as a
means to minister to widow,
stranger, poor and needy
given to hospitality, love and
accommodating strangers

1)We then that are
strong ought to bear the
infirmities of the weak,
and not to please
ourselves
2)Let every one of us
please his neighbor for
his good to edification
We that are strong, who have
attained a greater degree of
knowledge in Spiritual things
ought to bear the infirmities
of the weak, accommodate
ourself with their
weakness ,the strong bear the
weakness of the weak, to
support them to carry them as
father and mother would carry
a child, in love and
tenderness, understanding
and care, the believer has the
greatest patten in all the
world for denying self and
living for his neighbor, we
please, help, support, and live
for the good of our neighbor,
not to please ourselves , not
to make it our main aim to
gratify our will, we should be
willing to dent ourselves ,if
by it we promote the
happiness of others
CHRIST did not live to please
Himself, He did not pray
FATHER remove this cup of
sacrifice and denial from Me
no matter what” He prayed
My FATHER, if it is possible,
may this cup be taken from
Me: yet not as I will, but as
you will, JESUS CHRIST is the
believer’s patten for pleasing
others not self
Each of us should pleas his
neighbor, let us not please
ourselves, but let us please
our neighbor, let us live for
his good and edification , we
please, help, support , and live
for the good of our neighbor,
so that they may be edified
and built up in faith
 
2 CORINTHIANS 9:8
8)And GOD is able to
make all grace abound
towards you: that ye,
always having all
sufficiency in all things,
may abound to every
good work
And GOD is able to make all
grace abound towards you,
the meaning here is GOD is
able to make every gift of His
loving -kindness to abound to
you that you will not feel the
loss of a generous
contribution , do not suppose
that by giving liberally you will
be impoverished and reduced
to want , you should rather
confine in GOD , who is able
to furnish you abundantly
with what is needful for the
supply of your necessities ,
Divine blessing rests upon the
liberal man, and GOD keeps
Him from want
The believer is called upon to
give sacrificially; he is to give
to meet the desperate need
of the world, to give all
beyond what we need for our
own families, GOD is able to
make all grace abound and
overflow towards us, GOD is
able to pay back what we
give, the word “Grace” refers
to the unmerited favor and
blessing of GOD, both
Spiritual and material, God
expects the believer to give
sacrificially so that the
believer may abound in every
good work, that is GOD gives
the believer more and more
return, than what the believer gives,
That you always, if you give
liberally you are to expect that
GOD will furnish you with the
means, so that you will be
able to abound more and
more in it, you are to expect
that GOD will abundantly
qualify you for doing good in
every way, and that He will
furnish you with all that is
needful for this, the man who
gives shall have faith in GOD
he should expect that GOD
should bless him in it
GALATIANS 6:10
10)As we have therefore
opportunity, let us do
good unto all men,
especially unto them
who are of the
household of faith
As we have therefore
opportunity, ability let us do
good unto all men, let it be
our business to harm none,
but to supply the necessities
of all men; either with our
Spiritual advice and counsels,
with all the assistance we can
give them, that may in a way
be of Spiritual benefit or
advantage to them with our
worldly goods, as there is
ability of well doing, and that
continues; while time life
lasts, which is the time for
sowing, or doing good works,
ministering to their
necessities it is true rule
about doing good, withhold
not good from them to whom
it is due, when it is in the
power of thine hand to do it
PROVERBS 3:27, it is not that
we are to do it when it is
convenient; or when it
advance the interest of a
party; or when it will
contribute to our fame; the
rule is that we are to do it
when we have the
opportunity, no matter how
often that occurs, self-denial
may cost us much, if we have
the opportunity to do good,
we are to do it, and should be
thankful for the privilege, and
is to be done to all people,
not only to our family; not to
our party; not to our own
colors; not does who live in
the same land with us, but to
all mankind.
Especially to the believers to
the Gospel and influencing
their lives.

unto all pleasing, being
fruitful in every good
work, and increasing in
the knowledge of GOD
That you might walk worthy of
the LORD, that you may live

fruit, which, under the
influence of Divine grace, they
bring forth; that you may
please GOD in every good
work, an unregenerated man
cannot please GOD in
anything; without faith in
CHRIST it is impossible to
please Him, by anything man
can do; CHRIST only could,
and did always the things that
pleased His FATHER, good
works being done in faith, and
from a principle of love, and
view to the glory of GOD, are
acceptable unto Him through
CHRIST
And increasing in the
knowledge of GOD, GOD is

hope of their doggedness for

giving a heart of flesh, an
infusion of Spiritual life, a
formation of CHRIST in the
Soul, and the implementation
of grace, is a good effect it
makes man a good man, and

heavenly inheritance , GOD

believers, confidence and
assurance are striking trait of
genuine believer, believers
know GOD , the Spirit of GOD

believer ,JOHN 14:15-17
JOHN 14:26 , the Spirit of
GOD actually bears witness
with the Spirit of the believer,
the believer has absolute
confidence in the work of
Salvation, which GOD has
begun in his life, he has
confidence through the
presence of GOD’S Spirit who
dwells in him, the work begun
by GOD’S good work, that
revolutionizes and radically
changes the life of the
believer, no matter what kind
of life the person were living
the good work is GOD’S, He
began it and He will perfect it,
once GOD converts him, the
new believer begins to live a
good life; a life of
righteousness, purity, love,
joy, faith, humility, and control
The good work is incomplete
as long as a believer lives on
this earth there is always a
work to do, God is always
working within the life of the
believer to mature him more
and more, GOD is always
working to make him faithful
in his service to the LORD
JESUS, the perfecting will go

giveth us richly all things
to enjoy
18) That they do good,
that they be rich in good
works; ready to
distribute, willing to
communicate
Charge them that are rich in
this world, the things of the
world, the rich person is not
to trust in the uncertainty of
riches, riches are about the
most uncertain thing in life,
the world economy is never
certain, fluctuating up and
down every year, even if a
person keep his wealth in this
life, disease or accident can happen
the charge is forceful, that
they be not high-minded, that
they do not think better of
themselves on account of
their money, or any thing it
can purchase, they should not
be prideful and arrogant, they
should not value themselves
on account of their wealth,
they should not suppose that
they are any better people or
nearer to heaven because
they are wealthy, the world
honor money, riches really
makes no distinction in the
great things that pertain to
character and salvation, or
great, or good ,their riches do
not lift them up into a high
opinion of themselves, which
worldly riches often do, riches
produce pride rich men are
always proud of themselves
and despite others,
NOR TRUST IN UNCERTAIN
RICHES
Riches are uncertain because
they may soon be taken away,
the world economy is never
certain , fluctuating up and
down ,is uncertain to day they
are here and tomorrow gone,
no dependance can be place
on them in the emergencies
of life, he who is rich today,
has no security that he will be
tomorrow, a man whose hose
is in flames, or who is
shipwrecked, by thieves
BUT IN THE LIVING GOD
But the rich persons, let them
repose their trust in GOD, set
their heart and life upon GOD,
He is the living and the only
one that possesses every
good thing and perfect gift,
he alone can give us the
perfect gifts necessary for
this and next life, who gives
us richly all things to enjoy,
GOD, has life in Himself and
originally; is the author , giver
and sustainer of life in others,
and who always is, ever
continues unchangeably the
same; created all things and
gives all things richly largely,
plenteously; what is
necessary convenient, and
abundantly more than men
deserve:
THAT THEY DO GOOD, THAT
THEY BE RICH IN GOOD
WORKS
Command, instruct them to
do good, to be rich in good
works, or deeds, the deeds of
the rich man is to distribute
his wealth and be generous in
it, as Dorcas is said to be full
of good works and alms
deeds that their good works
may be as abundant as their
riches, to be generous, give
freely without grudging,
willing to share with others
free giver; the heart not
cleaving to possessions, but
ready to impart to others,,
GOD expect the rich man to
do good and be rich in good
works, he is to be sacrificial
in meeting the needs of the
lost and poor and dying of the
world.

In all things showing thyself a

persons of different ages and
sexes to the things which

living for CHRIST, he will

JESUS CHRIST was not only
sent by the FATHER , but
freely gave up Himself to die
for us by delivered up Himself
on our behalf, He die for our
sake, in our place, as our
substitute the reason of
giving Himself was to save
His people and deliver us
from bondage of sin, that He
might redeem us, though His
precious blood from all
iniquity the essence of sin,
namely transgression and
condemnation of the Law,
CHRIST was made sin, and a
curse for His people, that He
might redeemed and deliver
them from the punishment of
sin, in the bondage to which
we were till then, by the
payment of a ransom price,
and purify them and make
them Holy unto Himself, that
is, they are no longer to be
regarded as their own, but
redeemed for His service, and
for the promotion of His glory
A PECULAR PEOPLE
And purify unto Himself a
peculiar people, Zealous of
good works; all mankind are
filthy and unclean by nature,
in all the powers and abilities
of their souls nor can they
cleanse themselves from
iniquity of the flesh and Spirit
by anything they can do;
CHRIST has a Peculiar people
the believers whom He love,
and for whom He gave
Himself, that He might
sanctify and cleans them,
from sins which He has done
by shedding His blood for
them, and washing them in it,
which cleanses from all sin,
and he has purified them unto
Himself, for His own service,
for His pleasure and delight
and His glory,
CHRIST died so that He might
have a people who are His
own, a very special people as
His own, He died to stir good
works, when a person give his
life to CHRIST, to do all he
can to serve CHRIST, the
believer works and work,

8)This is a faithful
saying, and these things
I will that thou affirm
constantly, that they
which have believed in
GOD might be careful to
maintain good works,
these things are good
and profitable unto men
This is faithful saying meaning
the whole of what is before
expressed, concerning the
state and condition of the
elects of GOD; the
appearance of love, kindness,
mercy and compassion of
GOD to them in the effectual
calling; in which such an
abundance of grace is
communicated, these things I
will that they which have
believed in GOD might be
careful to maintain good
works, believers must do
good works and keep on
doing them, to be forward
and eager and diligent in
doing good works, make them
the constant subject of your
teaching and preaching, that
they who believed in GOD
might be careful to maintain
good works, the good works,
here refer not merely to acts
of benevolence and giving to
show compassion to the poor
and needy, but to all that is
upright and good to an honest
and righteous life.
Which means, to keep on
doing good works, to sustain
good works, to persevere in
doing good works, to carry on
doing good work, good works
must be sustained against all
odds regardless of
circumstances and
difficulties, it means to
persevere good work even in
opposition or danger, the
necessity of doing good work
is brought is also brought out
by the word “careful, the
word means: to think upon
good works, to consider good
works, to give careful
attention to good works, to
focus upon good works.
The idea is that the very
thoughts of a person’s mind
are to be centered and
focused upon doing good
works, good works are to be
the very concentration and
primary purpose of a
believer’s life , believers are
to be earnestly ,constantly
and steadfastly insist and
press for good works, good
work is good and profitable
for men, good work alone will
build the kind of society and
world which human heart
longs a world of love, joy
compassion, kindness mercy,
peace and faith, we are not
saved by the works of
righteousness; we are saved
by the mercy and grace of
GOD through faith in JESUS
CHRIST, but we are saved to
do good works, to do what is
good, good works are the
purpose for which GOD saved
us, the very proof that we are
saved is that we must
maintain good works.
 
TITUS 3:14
14)And let our’s also
learn to maintain good
works for necessary
uses, that they be not

And let our friends that those
who are believers also learn
to maintain good works of all
kinds, lean to apply
themselves to good deeds, to
honest labor and honorable
employment, so that they may
be able to meet necessary
demands whenever the
occasion may be require and
not to be living idle and
uncultivated and unfruitful,
constantly practice good and
benevolent works, they must
be doing good and keep away
from evil, they should be
distinguished for good works,
including compassionate
deeds, acts of given to the
poor and needy, honest labor
and an upright life, believers
are to work and labor in order
to make money and then have
to give to those in need,
ACTS 20:35 ministering to
help the needy of the world
That they be not fruitful, that
it may be seen that their
religion is not barren and
worthless, but all good works
in general, which are done in
conformity to the revealed will
of GOD, in faith, from
principle of love, and with a
view to the glory of GOD, are
meant to maintain them, and
to set examples of them to
others and the Constant
performance of them, which
contain the perfect will of
GOD; these show what are
good works, to adorn the
doctrine of CHRIST, to stop
the mouths of gainsayers, and
put to silence the ignorance
of the foolish man; and that
they be not unfruitful in them,
and in the knowledge of
CHRIST; good works are the
fruit of the Spirit, and of His
grace; they are fruits of
righteousness ; and such that
without them are like trees
without fruit , useless and
unprofitable, that good works
produces a happy effect on
themselves and on society ,

every trails and temptation
under suffering or sorrowful
circumstance, under affliction,
desertions, declensions, and
as attended infirmities and
sins, which is to provoke
unto love, to brotherly love, to

21)Make you perfect in
every good work to do
His will, working in you
that which is well-
pleasing in His sight,
through JESUS CHRIST;
to whom be glory for
ever and ever Amen
Make you perfect , in every
good work to do His will, a
good work is what is done in
obedience to the command of
GOD, and in faith, and from
the principle of love, in the
name and strength of JESUS
CHRIST, GOD equips us with
everything good for doing His
will, we can try and try to
work up the energy to do
GOD’S will, but we will only
fail , we may show initiative
and a lot of activities, but our
own human efforts and works
will only fail no matter what
we do, will eventually ease
and pass away,
GOD has a will for every one
of us, the will of GOD is not
equipped in us by our own
GOD can only be equipped in
us by GOD Himself, GOD
Himself work in us, stirring
and energizing us to do what
is well-pleasing in His sight,
works and efforts, the will of
which is to make fully ready;
to put in full order; to make
complete, fit you for, may he
finish and perfect in you,
would fully endow them with
whatever grace was
necessary to do His will and
to keep His words
Working in you by His spirit
continually, that all these
good works , would be
pleasing in His sight, through
JESUS CHRIST, every such
work should be diligently
attended to; such as concern GOD,
Believer need to be
strengthened with Spiritual
strength, to preform good
works; for they are weak and
feeble, and unable of
themselves to do anything
Spiritually good; without
JESUS CHRIST they can do
nothing, but through Him,
they can do all things
according to the will of GOD,
we can do GOD’S will only if
He works within us and
energized us to do it, what
determines the energy and
power of GOD in our lives, is
our walk and fellowship with
GOD, in His word and prayer,
trusting and depending upon
Him, then He will stir and
energized us and give us His
knowledge, wisdom, ideas and
vision of what He want done
To whom be the glory for ever
and ever; to this GOD the
FATHER, in the Son, and by
the Spirit, working all this
good in them and for them,
be really, truly, heartily, and
perpetually throughout all
ages, ascribed the honor and
glory due to Him for the
glorious manifestation of His
perfections in them
1 PETER 2:12
12)Having your
conversation honest
among the Gentiles; that
whereas they speak
against you as evil
doers, they may by your
good work, which they
shall behold glorify GOD
in the day of visitation
Having your conversation
honest among the gentiles,
by whom you are surrounded,
and will certainly observe your
conduct, they you may walk
honestly, abstain from evil,
sinful desire because
unbelievers are watching you,
the world watches everything
a genuine believer does, if a
person really follow CHRIST if
he is genuine , then the world
watches, we must live good
lives before the world, always
abstaining from evil desires, a
good life is the life that is
honorable , righteous, pure,
lovely, decent, excellent,
upright and noble, it means a
life without blame, the world
watches a genuine believer to
see if he really lives what he
professed , therefore he must
live a good lives, lives that are
just what we professed
righteous, pure, we must
therefore live for CHRIST and
do good works, when
unbelievers see our righteous
live and good deed, they will
experience the day of GOD’S
visitation and glorify GOD,
the day a man is visited
means, the day a man is
visited by GOD to bring the
man to repentance and
salvation, the day GOD will
visit the earth for final
judgment
1 PETER 2:15
15)For so is the will of
GOD, that with well
doing ye may put to
silence the ignorance of
foolish men
For so is the will of GOD, that
with well doing, in accordance
with the Divine will of GOD
that in this way you should
put them to silence, the
believer’s good behavior is to
silence the critics of CHRIST,
that with well doing, by doing
good works, that they had to
sacrifice themselves to meet
the desperate needs of the
dying world, and by living
soberly, righteously , and
godly; by having conversion
honest among Gentiles by a
life of uprightness and
benevolence
You may put to silence the
ignorance of foolish men, that
you may stop the mouths of
those foolish men who know
not GOD, who are ignorant of
GOD, of His righteousness,
His Gospel ,true wisdom
consisting in the true
knowledge of GOD, they that
are ignorant of the knowledge
of GOD, are called foolish

11)If any man speak, let
him speak as the oracles
of GOD; if any man
minister, let him do it as
of the ability which GOD
giveth: that GOD in all
things may be glorified
through JESUS CHRIST,
to whom be praised and
dominion for ever and
ever Amen
If any man speak, let him
speak as the oracles of GOD,
in accordance with the truth
which GOD has revealed, and
with an impressive sense of
the responsibility of delivered
and uttered the from GOD, a
Divine communication a
revelation, so called, because
they come from GOD, are
breathed and spoken by Him,
and contain His will and are
authoritative and infallible.
Believers are to serve by
speaking the word of GOD,
we are to speak for the word
of GOD by teaching,
preaching, we are to let GOD
speak through us, we are to
depend upon GOD to do the
speaking, and totally depend
upon Him,
We are to serve with strength
of GOD by extending the hand
of generosity, mercy and
giving to the ravaged poor
and needy, let him do it in
proportion of his ability,, as
GOD has prospered him in the
world, believer who do it will
do it with strength and ability
of GOD and from Him alone.
Believers are to serve so that
GOD may be glorified in all
things through JESUS
CHRIST, this is the sole aim
of the believer, he does not
preach or teach to draw
attention and gain a name for
himself, he proclaims GOD’S
word in order to glorify GOD
through JESUS CHRIST, he
does not preach to get
recognition, honor, or praise,
he preach and teach to stir
praise and thanksgiving to
GOD in the name of JESUS
CHRIST, GOD and CHRIST
alone deserved the praise
and worship through the
universe, no man deserves it,
GOD alone is sovereign
