This episode features a reading of Chapter 16 titled "Of Good Works" from the 1689 London Baptist Confession. The chapter outlines the confession's doctrine regarding good works done by believers. It affirms that only works that proceed from a heart purified by faith, are done in obedience to God's commandments, and are aimed at glorifying God can be considered truly good works. The chapter covers the necessity of good works in believers' lives, not as a ground of justification, but as evidence of a living faith and gratitude to God. It also touches on the acceptance and rewards attached to the good works of believers performed in faith. Additionally, it rejects the notion that good works make any atonement for sin or add to a believer's justification.
