It is an integral part of human existence, established by God from the beginning of creation. In <a href="/genesis/2-15.htm">Genesis 2:15</a>, God placed Adam in the Garden of Eden "to work it and take care of it," indicating that work was part of God's original design for humanity. Theological Significance: Work is seen as a divine mandate and a means of stewardship over God's creation. It is not merely a secular activity but a sacred duty that reflects God's character. In <a href="/exodus/20-9.htm">Exodus 20:9-10</a>, the commandment to work for six days and rest on the seventh underscores the rhythm of work and rest established by God. The Apostle Paul reinforces this in <a href="/colossians/3-23.htm">Colossians 3:23</a>, "Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for men." Work and the Fall: The nature of work was affected by the Fall. <a href="/genesis/3-17.htm">Genesis 3:17-19</a> describes how work became toilsome as a result of sin: "Cursed is the ground because of you; through toil you will eat of it all the days of your life." Despite this, work remains a fundamental aspect of human life, and believers are called to approach it with diligence and integrity. Work Ethic: The Bible emphasizes a strong work ethic. <a href="/proverbs/6-6.htm">Proverbs 6:6-11</a> encourages diligence by pointing to the ant's industrious nature. Similarly, <a href="/2_thessalonians/3-10.htm">2 Thessalonians 3:10-12</a> warns against idleness, stating, "If anyone is unwilling to work, he shall not eat." This underscores the importance of personal responsibility and the value of contributing to the community. Work and Worship: Work is an act of worship when done for the glory of God. <a href="/romans/12.htm">Romans 12:1</a> urges believers to offer their bodies as living sacrifices, which includes their daily labor. The integration of faith and work is a recurring theme, as seen in <a href="/ephesians/6-7.htm">Ephesians 6:7</a>, "Serve with good will, as to the Lord and not to men." Work and Provision: God promises provision through work. In <a href="/deuteronomy/8-18.htm">Deuteronomy 8:18</a>, it is stated, "But remember that it is the LORD your God who gives you the power to gain wealth." This highlights the belief that God enables individuals to work and provides for their needs through their labor. Work and Community: Work is also a means of serving others and building community. <a href="/acts/20-35.htm">Acts 20:35</a> records Paul's words, "It is more blessed to give than to receive," encouraging believers to use their work to bless others. The early church exemplified this by sharing resources and supporting one another (<a href="/acts/2-44.htm">Acts 2:44-45</a>). Eschatological Perspective: In the eschatological vision, work is redeemed and finds its ultimate fulfillment. <a href="/isaiah/65-21.htm">Isaiah 65:21-23</a> portrays a future where people will "build houses and dwell in them; they will plant vineyards and eat their fruit." This vision reflects the restoration of work to its intended purpose, free from the curse of sin. Conclusion: While work in the present age is marked by toil and struggle, it remains a vital aspect of human life and a means of glorifying God. Believers are called to approach their work with diligence, integrity, and a heart of service, reflecting the character of God in all they do.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.

The word "works" (erga) is a favorite designation in John for the wonderful works of Jesus (5:36; 10:38; 15:24, etc.; "miracles" to us, "works" to Him). "Works" is used by Paul and James, in a special sense, as denoting (with Paul) those legal performances by means of which men sought to be accepted of God, in contradistinction to that faith in Christ through which the sinner is justified apart from all legal works (<a href="/romans/3-27.htm">Romans 3:27</a>; <a href="/romans/4-2.htm">Romans 4:2, 6</a>, etc.; <a href="/galatians/2-16.htm">Galatians 2:16</a>; <a href="/galatians/3-2.htm">Galatians 3:2, 5, 10</a>), "working through love" (<a href="/galatians/5-6.htm">Galatians 5:6</a> <a href="/1_thessalonians/1-3.htm">1 Thessalonians 1:3</a>), and is fruitful in all truly "good works," in which Christian believers are expected to abound (<a href="/2_corinthians/9-8.htm">2 Corinthians 9:8</a> <a href="/ephesians/2-10.htm">Ephesians 2:10</a> <a href="/colossians/1-10.htm">Colossians 1:10</a> <a href="/2_thessalonians/2-17.htm">2 Thessalonians 2:17</a>, etc.). When James speaks of being justified by "works" as well as by "faith" (2:14-26), he has in view those works which show faith to be real and vital. "Dead works" avail nothing (compare <a href="/hebrews/9-14.htm">Hebrews 9:14</a>; <a href="/hebrews/10-24.htm">Hebrews 10:24</a>). Judgment is according to "works" (<a href="/matthew/16-27.htm">Matthew 16:27</a>, the Revised Version (British and American) "deeds," margin "Greek: `doing' " praxis; <a href="/romans/2-6.htm">Romans 2:6</a> <a href="/1_peter/1-17.htm">1 Peter 1:17</a>, etc.), the new life being therein evidenced. A contrast between "faith" and "good works" is never drawn in the New Testament. See , further, JUSTIFICATION. W. L.
