    True Christian faith is seen in its works.

    Paul expresses that salvation is God’s free demonstration of grace, which we receive by faith, and not by acts of merit (Romans 3:28). James states by works a man is justified, and not by faith only (James 2:24). Indeed, even the demons possess a faith in God, yet have no genuine trust in Christ ...read more
