The Problem of Good Works in the New Testament
The problem for christians is that we imagine that there's a gory of works that we can do that will make us pleasing to god. Ye. I mean, it's really interesting to see that the way that god sort of accepts the work of the people really didn't change from from the old to the new testament. That which was given, you know, in the right spirit. O, for lack of better wordi was always the measure of the acceptable work before god. You now mean the sacrifices of bulls and, you knowa the work of of the flesh, i was never considered meritorious in it of itself.
