Mat 7:21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Mat 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:

Joh 9:31 Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshiper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

Luk 12:43 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

Luk 11:28 But he said, Yea rather, blessed are they that hear the word of God, and keep it.

Luk 6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:
Luk 6:48 He is like a man which built a house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
Luk 6:49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built a house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

1Jn 2:17 And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth forever.

Mar 3:35 For whosoever shall do the will of God, the same is my brother, and my sister, and mother.

3Jn 1:11 Beloved, follow not that which is evil, but that which is good. He that doeth good is of God: but he that doeth evil hath not seen God.

Joh 3:21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Mat 8:9 For I am a man under authority, having soldiers under me: and I say to this man, Go, and he goeth; and to another, Come, and he cometh; and to my servant, Do this, and he doeth it.

The daily business of a Christian

(William Plumer, "Vital Godliness: A Treatise
on Experimental and Practical Piety" 1864)

The daily business of a Christian is to . . .
resist the devil,
deny himself,
overcome the world,
crucify the flesh with its affections and lusts,
imitate Christ,
walk with God.

Our good works...

from Spurgeon's, "UNPROFITABLE SERVANTS"

Our good works are evidences of grace within us.
Our faithfulness will be the evidence of our having a loving
spirit towards our Master- evidence that our heart is
changed, and that we have been made to love him for whom
once we had no affection.

Our works are the proof of our love, and hence
they stand as evidence of the grace of God.

God first gives us grace, and then rewards us for it.
He works in us, and then counts the fruit as our work.
We work out our own salvation, because "he works in us
to will and to do of his own good pleasure."

If he shall ever say, "Well done" to you and to me it will be
because of his own rich grace, and not because of our merits.

Luk 6:47 Whosoever cometh to me, and heareth my sayings, and doeth them, I will show you to whom he is like:
Luk 6:48 He is like a man which built a house, and digged deep, and laid the foundation on a rock: and when the flood arose, the stream beat vehemently upon that house, and could not shake it: for it was founded upon a rock.
Luk 6:49 But he that heareth, and doeth not, is like a man that without a foundation built a house upon the earth; against which the stream did beat vehemently, and immediately it fell; and the ruin of that house was great.

Who is the Rock of our salvation? The Christ that is born again in us.

""Our good works are evidences of grace within us."" (If the Works are His works in us.)
"Our faithfulness will be the evidence of our having a loving (Only His Spirit is Loving)
spirit towards our Master- evidence that our heart is
changed, and that we have been made to love him for whom
once we had no affection.""

"Faith without works is dead" Much more, works without His Faith in us are dead.

In Christ, not just a salutation but a FACT!

By the Faith of Jesus Christ in us: Phillip
