When Jesus’ followers live in a way that accords with the principles that he teaches them, they will bring others to praise God. The idea of Christians bringing glory to God through their good works is also seen elsewhere in the New Testament (1 Corinthians 10:31; 2 Corinthians 4:6; Philippians 2:15; Titus 2:8; 1 Peter 2:12, 1 Peter 2:15). 1 Good works are always to be done for the glory of God and not self. 2
16 Que votre lumière luise ainsi devant les hommes, afin qu'ils voient vos bonnes œuvres, et qu'ils glorifient votre Père qui est dans les cieux.
