"Faith Working With Works"

Contributed by Clark Tanner on Apr 28, 2009

We are justified by faith alone, but faith that saves is never alone; it issues in good works.

The Obedience Of Faith

Contributed by Scott Coltrain on Sep 5, 2002

Can mere belief in God and the truths of His Word win the Lord’s approval and blessings? To the contrary, the Scriptures plainly teach that only a faith that leads to obedience to God wins approval and reward.

When one reads the Letter to the Romans and then reads the Letter of James, there may appear to be a contradiction. Romans 4:1-6 clearly teaches that we are justified by faith apart from works. However, James 2:24 says that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone. Martin Luther saw ...read more

It’s in our human nature to fight, we just need to be more choosy with our limited ability and choose to only fight for the battle of faith and what God has promised!

By Faith You Shall Be Saved

Contributed by Kamalanathan Francis on Feb 2, 2021

Faith is an inevitable spiritual element for a Christian. It is a gift from God for those who are set apart for himself. The word "faith" is used in this world by many non- Christians, which is not the faith the bible talks about.

Parents' faith in their children's future or employer's faith in his worker's efficiency or pagan's faith in their rituals are completely different from the biblical faith. According to scripture, faith is a gift from the God of the Universe, Who was, and who is, and the IAM. ...read more

Believe: Beyond Belief

Contributed by Peter Loughman on Nov 11, 2006

We say we believe, but are those just empty words? It seems the Jewish believers Jesus is addressing in this Scripture believe with their lips but not their heart.
