'Works' in the Bible

For we never fail to remember your works of faith and labours of love and your persistent and unwavering hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the presence of our God and Father;

This is why we constantly thank God, because when you received the message about God that you heard from us, you welcomed it not as a human message, but as it truly is, the message of God, which also works effectively in you believers.

and send Timothy, our brother who works with us for God in the gospel of the Messiah, to strengthen and encourage you in your faith,
