For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God has before ordained that we should walk in them.
All Commentaries on Ephesians 2:10 Go To Ephesians 2
Cyril of Alexandria
AD 444
Human beings choose their own way of life and are entrusted with the reins of their own intelligence, so as to follow whatever course they wish, either toward the good or toward the contrary. But our [original, created] nature has implanted in it a zealous desire for whatever is good and the will to concern itself with goodness and righteousness. For this is what we mean by saying that humanity is “in the image and likeness of God,” that the creature is naturally disposed to what is good and right.
