#3644 – Faith & Works

Good morning people who have a healthy and accurate view of God’s Word

“It’s all about faith Steve. Faith. Faith. Faith.”

Well, James had something different to say.

James 2:14,17,22,24,26 NIV What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them?…In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead…You see that his (Abraham’s) faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did…You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone…As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

I’m thinking that what we do matters to God.

Without faith, it’s impossible to please God (Hebrews 11:6), but action must accompany our faith.

“How’s your faith?”

“How’s your works?”
