Good works done by unregenerate hearts cannot be acceptable because they are done to glorify the self. Any work done in the flesh does not satisfy God.
When we do good works as motivated by the Holy Spirit are acceptable because they glorify God.
1 Corinthians 10:31 "So, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
Matthew 5:16 "In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven."
Psalm 115:1 "Not to us, O Lord, not to us, but to your name give glory, for the sake of your steadfast love and your faithfulness!"
