Hi CFC,

John 6, ESV
28 Then they said to him, “What must we do, to be doing the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in him whom he has sent.”


According to Jesus: believing (in) Jesus, whom God sent, IS A WORK to do...if we want to do the works of God!

So I stand corrected by the words of the Lord!!! (also realizing Calvinists have a different take on these verses...and not to bring that up right now).....

Rick
