what relationship is there between doing good and being good
Given the teachings of the Bible (no one can do this with the exception of Jesus, Rom. 3:23) we have to wonder why we should bother with âgoodâ at all. And that brings us to our original question. What is the difference between âBeingâ and âDoingâ good. While the Bible discourages the idea that we can âbeâ good enough it repeatedly encourages us to âdoâ good. Jesus said, âLet your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.â (Matthew 5:16)
