    James teaches that Abraham's faith that Paul taught about in Romans chapter four is the same faith that the Holy Spirit inspired him to write about and both he and Paul teach that biblical faith is a working faith.

    INTRODUCTION 1. Open your bible to James 2:21-24. 2. In the earlier lessons from this chapter James has declared and illustrated over and over the truth that a Christian is saved, “not by just faith, but rather by faith and works”. 3. In the last six verse of the second chapter of ...read more

    Most of us confidently believe that we have faith. The problem is that the faith we often display is quite different from what is defined here in Hebrews 11.
