    Doing Good

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Jul 28, 2012
    based on 4 ratings
     | 10,547 views

    Galatians has a word or two on good deeds that sound a lot like the message of James. While James doesn't focus on the Spirit, and Paul centers there, the echoes of the faith are heard in both. It is impressive to note the parallels.

    Last week we finished our study in the book of James. James was all about words and works of the faithful Christian. Our walk and our talk express our faith and our relationship with God. Just as faith without works is dead, James 2:26, James makes it clear that claiming to be religious without ...read more
