Romans 2:6-8 (ESV)
6 He will render to each one according to his works: 7 to those who by patience in well-doing seek for glory and honor and immortality, he will give eternal life; 8 but for those who are self-seeking and do not obey the truth, but obey unrighteousness, there will be wrath and fury.
“Works” is not automatically a bad word in Scripture. While it is true our works cannot bring us salvation, it is equally true we will be judged “according to his works.” Our works is seeking the fruit of His Spirit in obedience to the Lord as we become one with the firstfruits of creation. The body of Christ.
