    Have you ever wondered about faith, doubted that you had it, or wished you had more? Few things are more misunderstood than faith. Yet, few things are more important

    We have to decide WHAT kind of faith we will have!

    INTRODUCTION • SLIDE #1 • There is a widely told story that George Sweating, in his book on James, "How to Solve Conflicts," tells. • It is the story of Charles Blondin (28 February 1824 – 19 February 1897), the great French daredevil and tightrope walker. • While performing on a cable across ...read more

    What you believe governs what you do; if you don't do what Jesus commands, you don't really believe what he says. Or some other belief is stronger.

    As many of you know, my mother is coming to visit me in a couple of weeks. As a matter of fact, she'll be playing for the Sunday service on the 23rd. And guess what? I'm going to finish emptying out my boxes before she arrives. This is because I know my mother, and I know she'll be here. ...read more

    Would you turn to James, chapter 2.

    Would you turn to James, chapter 2. Now when we look in the Book of James we find a lot of straight talk. James does not beat around the bush. But he says something in the passage that we’re about to study, something very startling, because it almost seems, and a careless reading would make ...read more

    James And Paul On Works And Faith

    James 2 and Romans 4 have some interesting contrasts. Faith without works is dead or faith apart from works is what saves... which is true?

    Last week James told us that if we are careless with our language our religion is worthless. (Jas. 1:26) This week James tells us that if we believe without acting on it our faith is worthless. (Jas. 2:14,17,20,26). A worthless religion and a worthless faith make a worthless Christian and a ...read more

    Salvation is only through faith and the redeeming work and grace of God. However, I do say that if our faith is not accompanied by works, then we can’t say that we have a genuine faith.

    I want to start today’s service with a joke. There was this very rich man who lived in the United States, who had heard of a man that lived in France that was very famous for walking the tightrope. According to what he had heard, the Frenchman had the reputation of walking the tightrope at ...read more

    If a picture is worth a thousand words, then our actions as disciples, when they reflect the faith we have, should be worth far more.

    I signed up for Instagram this week. I’m still learning how to use it, but here’s the purpose as shared on the Instagram website: “Instagram is a fun and quirky way to share your life with friends through a series of pictures. Snap a photo with your mobile phone, then choose a ...read more

    If people are saved through faith, we must understand God's definition of faith!

    If you look at the front of the Bulletin, our Scripture of the Week is Ephesians 2:8-9 - For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God—not by works, so that no one can boast. God of course is talking about Christians saved ...read more

    What does it mean to become polluted by the world? To be polluted means our thinking and behaviors are of the world. We are subscribing to its philosophies and ideals. We are liviing in accordance with the sinful nature. So how do we become unpolluted?

    ARE YOU RELGIOUS (part three) Recap: Last week we looked at the beginning of James 1:27, "Religion as God the Father accepts as pure and faultless is this: to look after orphans and widows in their distress." We looked at why orphans and widows and it's because these are among the most vulnerable, ...read more

    James discusses the external evidence of one's salvation.

    Faith is one of the great concepts of our Christian experience. Yet, some have pressed this to an extreme by implying that it makes no difference how one lives - faith is all that matters. What I am referring to is what is referred to by some as “easy believism.” Easy believism ...read more

    It is possible to believe in Jesus without actually following Jesus. We need to be sure we know which category we fit in.

    ARE YOU A REAL FOLLOWER? INTRODUCTION: You can’t be a follower without being a believer but it is possible to believe in Jesus without actually following Jesus. I’m not saying that a believer isn’t a follower. You will find plenty of places in scripture that refer to Christians ...read more

    The question is this; what kind of faith do I have? James offers of 4 possibilities - 3 of which are no good.

    What Kind of Faith James 2:14-26 * I suggest we live in the “MENU AGE.” That is to say, we desire to have a choice about anything we do. We drive up to McDonald’s, are asked “what would you like” only to say, “Wait a minute, let me look at the menu.” As a culture, we have decided that we ...read more

    A sermon about having "Jesus shaped faith."

    “Actions Speak Louder than Anything” James 2:1-18 Comedian Louis C.K. once said, “I have a lot of beliefs…And I live by none of them. That’s just the way I am. They’re just my beliefs. I just like believing them—I like that part. They’re my ...read more

    In the Christian life faith and works go together like inhaling and exhaling. Billy Graham stated it in these terms: Faith is taking the Gospel in; works is taking the Gospel out.

    For those not familiar with an Anglican Service; there are four Scripture Readings before the Sermon. The Scripture Readings for this day were: Proverbs 22:1-2, 8-9, 22-23 ; Psalm 125 ; James 2:1-17 and Mark 7:24-37. Alexander Graham Bell was an amazingly talented person. He invented the ...read more
