    based on 4 ratings
     | 8,644 views

    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.

    Showing Partiality Is A Sin

    Contributed by Bill Butsko on Sep 3, 2009
    based on 3 ratings
     | 5,035 views

    Favoring one person over another indicates failure to follow Jesus’ example of how to treat people.

    Text: “But if you show partiality, you commit sin, and are convicted by the law as transgressors” (James 2:9). There is a wonderful old story by John Denver about a man invited to a fancy banquet. He arrived wearing simple clothing and was told to get out and go in the kitchen door for a handout. ...read more

     | 4,598 views

    Ordinary Proper 18: What is the relationship between saving faith and works of righteousness? Sometimes an inability to distinguish can create confusion. But we look to Saint James to answer the question!

    There are vocations that endeavor to deal in certainty. Take engineering: I’m not certain that I would feel comfortable driving over a bridge designed by a person who simply ‘felt’ that their design would have integrity. I want somebody who will crunch the numbers and who understands beam and ...read more

    God's Call To The Poor Series

    Contributed by Dennis Davidson on Oct 12, 2009
    based on 14 ratings
     | 11,385 views

    Poor Christians are special people to God. He saves each of us on the basis of the work of Christ on the cross & not because of anything that we are or have. But the poor are more receptive to the gospel message therefore they seem favored by God.

    JAMES 2:5-7 GOD’S CALL TO THE POOR [1 Corinthians 1:26-27] Preferential treatment of the rich is wrong. James makes his case that biased judgment is wrong through four rhetorical questions he will ask, expecting an affirmative answer. Those who have entered into a faith relationship with Jesus ...read more
