'Work' in the Bible

Remembering without ceasing your work of faith, and labour of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ, in the sight of God and our Father;

Here is another reason why we constantly give thanks to God: When you received God's word, which you heard from us, you did not accept it as the word of humans but for what it really is the word of God, which is at work in you who believe.

But when I could stand it no longer, I sent Timothy to find out about your faith. I was afraid that the tempter had tempted you in some way, and that our work had been a waste of time.

And that ye study to be quiet, and to do your own business, and to work with your own hands, as we commanded you;

Brothers, we ask you to show your appreciation for those who work among you, set an example for you in the Lord, and instruct you.

and to regard them very highly in love because of their work. Be at peace among yourselves.

Faithful is He who calls you, and He will also perfect His work.
