Onto the greater works.

If you are offended by the modern-day presence of Jesus’ same-natured kingdom and his declaration that those of us who believe in Him will be doing the same works He did, then wait until we get to the “greater works,” which we are also suppose to be doing (John 14:12). They, too, have been the subject of much speculation, disagreement, and reductionism. Ironically, most of us would rather skip the works of Jesus and go directly to what we think are the “greater works.” But, as someone once said, this would be like building a second story on a vacant lot.

What these “greater works” really are, however, has not been left up to our imaginations or whims. They are fully and clearly revealed in God’s Word. As Jesus said, “There is nothing concealed that will not be disclosed, or hidden that will not be made known (Matt. 10:26; also Luke 8:17; 12:2).
