Why is it important for Christians to do good works?
Answered in 1 source
Doing good works is important for Christians as it is a demonstration of faith and obedience to God, reflecting His love and grace to others.
The Apostle emphasizes in Galatians 6:10 the call for Christians to do good unto all, especially to the household of faith. Good works are not a means to earn salvation but are vital expressions of our faith and transformation through grace. As believers, we are called to reflect the love of Christ by serving others, fulfilling the commands of God. This involves seeking opportunities to help those in need, thereby giving testimony to the grace we have received, and operating in the spirit of humility and service rather than seeking personal glory or recognition.
