The document discusses rewards for good work from an passage in Ephesians. It gives directives for both employees and employers. Employees are told to obey respectfully and work wholeheartedly for the Lord rather than people. Employers are told to treat employees fairly without threats, knowing God shows no partiality. The reward for both is from God, whether bond or free, for any good work done with sincerity of heart for him.
