The Greek word, συνεργέω, is transliterated as synergeō and is translated as "workers together" in this passage:
2 Corinthians 6:1 We then, as workers together with him, beseech you also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain.
This same word is used in many passages in the New Testament.
Mark 16:20 And they went forth, and preached every where, the Lord working with G4903 them, and confirming the word with signs following. Amen.
Romans 8:28 And we know that all things work together G4903 for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.
1 Corinthians 16:16 That ye submit yourselves unto such, and to every one that helpeth G4903 with us, and laboureth.
James 2:22 Seest thou how faith wrought G4903 with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?
The James 2:22 verse is particularly important. We play an important part in our salvation. We can't save ourselves, only God can save. But we provide faith and works. These things work together.
