Matthew 5 v 16<\/p>\n
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works<\/strong>,<\/span> and glorify your Father which is in heaven.<\/p>\n Matthew 7 v 22<\/p>\n Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in your name? and in your name have cast out devils? and in your name done many wonderful works<\/strong>?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Matthew 11 v 2<\/p>\n Now when John had heard in the prison the works<\/span><\/strong> of Christ, he sent two of his disciples.<\/p>\n Matthew 11 v 20<\/p>\n Then began he to upbraid the cities wherein most of his mighty works<\/span><\/strong> were done because they repented not:<\/p>\n Matthew 11 v 21<\/p>\n Woe unto you, Chorazin! woe unto you, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works<\/strong>,<\/span> which were done in you, had been done in Tyre and Sidon, they would have repented long ago in sackcloth and ashes.<\/p>\n Matthew 11 v 23<\/p>\n And you, Capernaum, which art exalted unto heaven, shall be brought down to hell: for if the mighty works<\/strong>,<\/span> which have been done in you, had been done in Sodom, it would have remained until this day.<\/p>\n Matthew 13 v 54<\/p>\n And when Jesus came into His own country, He taught them in their synagogue, insomuch that they were astonished, and said, Where has this man this wisdom, and these mighty works?<\/span><\/p>\n Matthew 13 v 58<\/p>\n And Jesus did not many mighty works<\/span><\/strong> there because of their unbelief.<\/p>\n Matthew 16 v 27<\/p>\n For the Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His angels, and then He shall reward every man according to his works<\/strong>.<\/span><\/p>\n Matthew 23 v 3<\/p>\n All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not you after their works<\/strong>:<\/span> for they say, and do not.<\/p>\n Matthew 23 v 5<\/p>\n But all their works<\/span><\/strong> they do for to be seen of men: they make broad their phylacteries, and enlarge the borders of their garments,<\/p>\n Luke 10 v 13<\/p>\n Woe unto you, Chorazin! woe unto you, Bethsaida! for if the mighty works<\/span><\/strong> had been done in Tyre and Sidon, which have been done in you, they had a great while ago repented, sitting in sackcloth and ashes.<\/p>\n Luke 19 v 37<\/p>\n And as he was now drawing nigh, even at the descent of the Mount of Olives, the whole multitude of the disciples began to rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works<\/span><\/strong> which they had seen;<\/p>\n John 5 v 20<\/p>\n For the Father loves the Son, and shows Him all things that He Himself is doing, and the Father will show Him greater works<\/span><\/strong> than these so that you will marvel.<\/p>\n John 5 v 36<\/p>\n But I have greater witness than that of John: for the works<\/span><\/strong> which the Father hath given Me to finish, the same works<\/span><\/strong> that I do, bear witness of me, that the Father has sent Me.<\/p>\n John 6 v 28<\/p>\n Therefore they said to Him, \u201cWhat shall we do, so that we may work the works<\/span><\/strong> of God?\u201d<\/p>\n John 7 v 3<\/p>\n Therefore His brothers said to Him, \u201cLeave here and go into Judea, so that Your disciples also may see Your works<\/span><\/strong> which You are doing.<\/p>\n John 8 v 39<\/p>\n They answered and said to Him, \u201cAbraham is our father.\u201d Jesus said to them, \u201cIf you are Abraham\u2019s children, do the works<\/span><\/strong> of Abraham.<\/p>\n John 9 v 3 – 4<\/p>\n Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works<\/span><\/strong> of God should be made manifest in him. I must work the works<\/span><\/strong> of him that sent me, while it is day: the night comes, when no man can work.<\/p>\n John 10 v 25<\/p>\n Jesus answered them, \u201cI told you, and you do not believe; the works<\/span><\/strong> that I do in My Father\u2019s name, these testify of Me.<\/p>\n John 10 v 32<\/p>\n Jesus answered them, \u201cI showed you many good works<\/span><\/strong> from the Father; for which of them are you stoning Me?\u201d<\/p>\n John 10 v 37 – 8<\/p>\n If I do not do the works<\/span><\/strong> of My Father, do not believe Me;\u00a0but if I do them, though you do not believe Me, believe the works<\/span><\/strong>, so that you may know and understand that the Father is in Me, and I in the Father.\u201d<\/p>\n John 14 v 10 – 12<\/p>\n \u201cDo you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father is in Me? The words that I say to you I do not speak on My own initiative, but the Father abiding in Me does His works<\/strong>.<\/span> \u201cBelieve Me that I am in the Father and the Father is in Me; otherwise believe because of the works<\/span><\/strong> themselves. \u201cTruly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works<\/span><\/strong> that I do, he will do also; and greater than these he will do; because I go to the Father.<\/p>\n John 15 v 24<\/p>\n If I had not done among them the works<\/span><\/strong> which no one else did, they would not have sin; but now they have both seen and hated Me and My Father as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Matthew 5 v 16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.
