To perform the good works recognized as good by divine standards foreordained by the Father. Even after rebirth of our spirit in regeneration, we still have an old sin nature, or the natural man within us. We are still scarred in our thinking and in our body from that sin. The work of the Holy Spirit renews our thinking , then our spirit and manifest from our heart in our work.
A major function of the church is to foster evangelism or communication of the Gospel to unbelievers and communication of His Word as written faith, a more comprehensive or deeper faith, as frequently translated as doctrine, which is performed by the work of Pastor-Teachers to their local congregations.
In this effort, the RCC has enormous resources available to promote the contionous teaching of Bible doctrine to all believers throughout the earth.
My statement of the work of salvation not being directly attributable to the Church is directed to emphasize salvation is technically the work of the Holy Spirit in regeneration. There are at least forty things which happen to the believer at salvation, all assoicated with the believer's relationship with God. The Church or body of believers do have many rewards pending the feast, but no human regenerates the spirit.
