This final episode sums up what constitutes a good work. Good works fundamentally seek the glory of God and aim to honor God as God and give Him thanks. All good works build on the finished work of Christ, which is the application of Christ’s work of redemption to all who believe in Him. Christians don’t work to be saved, but do in fact work since they are “God’s workmanship created in Christ Jesus for good works.” (Ephesians 2:10) The latter part of the episode focuses on the response of the two faithful servants in the parable of the talents (Matthew 25:14-29). Both live for the pleasure of their Master and invest the gifts and talents that God gave them to bring Him a return on His investment. The text indicates that they delighted in bringing pleasure to God. This core desire to honor and please our Lord, Who has given us everything, is the driving motivation behind all good works.
