    An Endangered Species

    It is futile to have faith without deeds. In simple language, it is hypocrisy and such a faith can never save anybody. One’s faith is dead if it is not accompanied by action.

If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical ...read more
