Faith and Actions Working Together – James 2:22
James tells us that our faith and actions work together. We are saved by faith. And that saving faith is demonstrated by our actions.
Encouraging, comforting and urging you to live lives worthy of God, who calls you into his kingdom and glory. (1 Thess. 2:12 NIV)
James tells us that our faith and actions work together. We are saved by faith. And that saving faith is demonstrated by our actions.
We will never experience justification based on our works. God offers his salvation by grace. And there is nothing we can do to earn it.
Jesus calls on us to bear fruit that will last. Fruit that is the result of faithful service within his kingdom. Fruit fertilized by love.
Does your faith in Christ prompt you to give to the needy, to care for the down and out, or to comfort those experiencing loss?
Paul’s message to all who was listen was to repent and turn to God. And then demonstrate their repentance with their actions.
