    James teaches that biblical faith is not expressed in words only or just in one’s mind, but that it must be expressed in the actual doing and obeying what God and Christ command us to do.

    INTRODUCTION 1. Open your bibles to James 2:18-26. 2. In our last lesson we discussed two different kinds of faith, from James 2:14-17. We discussed a faith that is not profitable and a faith that is dead. As a contrast to those two faiths, we also discussed a “living faith”. 3. In the ...read more

    Baptism: Magic Or Mission?

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on Feb 14, 2010
    based on 4 ratings
     | 3,738 views

    "How can I get God to do what I want?" is the poor question that has led to erroneous concepts of baptism. Baptism is, to the contrary, our signing on to how we can go what God wants.

    The problem is that if you don’t ask the right question, you’ll never get the right answer. If you ask the wrong question, you’ll never get the answer you want. A long time ago I learned that it is the wrong question, definitely the wrong question, to ask, "Are we having dessert tonight?" If I ...read more

    The Inevitable Cleanup Job Series

    Contributed by Joseph Smith on May 5, 2009
     | 4,096 views

    Sin is inevitable and needs to be identified as the filth that is in all of us, and it needs to be acknowledged in the Christian community. But God loves us and cares for us and is in the blood of Christ cleaning us.

    No matter how good it is, it has to be cleaned up. Isn’t that always the case? No matter how good anything is, it has to be cleaned up. You get a new suit of clothes, you wear it a few times -- maybe only one time, in this heat -- and before you know it, it has to go off to the dry cleaners. No ...read more
