    James is battling those who say you are saved by faith and can live as you want.

    WILL YOUR FAITH GET YOU TO HEAVEN? James 2:14-26 This is the passage that some people believe that James contradicts Paul. It seems on the surface that this is true. In Romans 3:28, Paul specifically says that a person is justified by faith without the works of the law. Yet we are told by James ...read more

    What elements are necessary for a Biblical Faith?

    Biblical faith involves 3 things: our minds, our emotions, and our wills I. Our Minds A. Biblical faith is first of all belief based on evidence 1. Christianity is firmly set in history 2. A reasonable and honest inquiry with our minds leads us to believe that the Bible is too accurate to be a ...read more

    James talks about three kinds of faith.

    I. Introduction a. There is a large controversy between Faith and Works. Many churches say you must have works to get to heaven, others say it is “Faith Alone” that saves. i. Paul states in Ephesians 2:8-9, “For if is by grace you have been saved through faith; and that nor of yourselves, if is ...read more

    A challenge to live the Real Thing! Not this fake, go to church, get excited after youth camp sort of faith.

    We all know the story of Abraham and Isaac, how God told him to the mountain and sacrifice his son. Abraham proceeded as told and took Isaac up, having been asked by his son Where the lamb for the offering was, Abraham just could say that God would provide.

    We treat the Word of God like an All-You-Can-Eat-Buffet. We pick up and take the things that appeal to us, but leave behind and untouched things that challenge us. Why have 10 Commandments when you can enjoy only 8?

    When I was in college, there was a restaurant that we loved to go to. It was an all you could eat type of place, which explains why I look the way I look today. We would go and stand in line in the buffet and pick all those things we wanted to eat -- shrimp, crab, clams, hushpuppies, French ...read more

    faith without works is dead

    James 2:19-26 Show Me Your Faith. I once heard a pastor say, “If you were on trial for being a Christian, would there be enough evidence to convict you?” I believe that it was Augustine who said, “Faith alone saves, but the faith that saves is never alone.” Good works do not save, we are saved ...read more

    Faith without works is dead. How often have I heard that sitting in the pews. James talks about meeting peoples needs as a way of showing faith. I want to take that a step further.

    James 2:14-26 what good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? (15) Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food.

    This is about living faith.

    How do you check to see if someone is alive? You check for vital signs. You check their pulse. You find out if the person is breathing. You may check for blood pressure. You might ask if the person can move their fingers or toes. You may even holler out the person’s name. There are several ...read more
