Galatians 6:9 - "Let us not lose heart in doing good, for in due time we will reap if we do not grow weary."
Doing good for the sake of making the world a better place is a commendable thing to do. However, will it have eternal consequence? The only way to know for sure is to do it from the heart of God. Those born of His Spirit, who have the indwelling Son of God in their hearts, possess the fundamental Root of Jesse which produces God's fruit within our respective lives (Romans 15:12).
Beware and refuse to listen to the lie that other religions are working for God. Jesus said "I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do nothing" (John 15:5). That is why without Christ, "do-gooders" will eventually "lose heart." We must continue to know our Source for goodness, submit to Him, and allow the Vine to produce fruit in us according to His will.
