Good Works... For the World | Titus 2:14 | N.T. Wright Online

The idea of “good works” in relation to religion is often [a boogeyman]. But as Prof. Wright explains in this video, the phrase translated “good works” in the New Testament isn’t about inward-looking, moralistic, personal activity for the sake of earning salvation. It’s all about communal activity for the sake of modeling New Creation in the world. We must remember that the church exists for the benefit of its non-members.
