How do we know our good works are acceptable to God?
Answered in 1 source
Our good works are acceptable to God because they are wrought by Him and through the perfect obedience of Jesus Christ.
According to the sermon, our works are deemed acceptable not due to our merits but because they are wrought in God. In Ephesians 2:10, the Apostle Paul explains that we are God's workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works. This means that our good works are the result of God's grace and are empowered by Him. It reinforces the theological concept that without the perfect righteousness of Christ, who perfectly obeyed God's law, our deeds would never measure up to His glory. Thus, those who have been born again can rest assured that their actions, though imperfect, are counted as perfect by the Father when they trust in Christ's righteousness.
