James 2:24
You see that a
person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone.

good seek glory, honor and immortality, he will give eternal life.

is to my Father’s glory, that you bear much fruit, showing yourselves
to be my disciples.
Acts 26:19-20 "So
then, King Agrippa, I was not disobedient to the vision from heaven. 20First to those in Damascus, then to those in Jerusalem and in
all Judea, and to the Gentiles also, I preached that they should repent
and turn to God and prove their repentance by their deeds.
Galatians 5:6 For

Philippians 2:12-13
Therefore, my
dear
friends, as you have always obeyed--not only in my presence, but now
much more in my absence--continue to work out your salvation with fear

who works in you to will and to act according to his good purpose.

may spur one another on toward love and good deeds.
James 1:22-24
Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it
says. 23Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it
says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror 24and, after looking
at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like.
James 2:14-17
What good is it, my brothers,
if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?
15Suppose a brother or sister
is without clothes and daily food. 16If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm
and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good
is it? 17In the same way,
faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
James 4:17
Anyone, then, who knows the good he ought to do and doesn't
do it, sins.

such good lives among the pagans that, though they accuse you of doing
wrong, they may see your good deeds and glorify God on the day he visits
us.

it is God’s will that by doing good you should silence the ignorant
talk of foolish men.

Therefore, my brothers, be
all the more eager to make your calling and election sure. For if you do
these things, you will never fall,
