Doers, Not Hearers Series

Contributed by Daniel Teberian on Mar 16, 2023

Our faith is worthless if it does not produce good works. In James 1:22-25, we are called to act according to the faith that we have in God. In order to serve the Lord, we must act upon our faith.

For he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into ...read more
