    Our God is concerned about the fragments about what is left. Yield to the will of God, Give him every portion every fragment of your life. Allow him to mold you, to refine you into the image of His Son. Our inadequacy makes room for His sufficiency! Updated July 2021.

    The Marriage Of Faith And Deeds

    Contributed by Derrick Tuper on Mar 5, 2012
     | 5,210 views

    Some people live under the separation of faith and deeds. But they were destined to be together. And what God has joined together, let man not separate.

    THE MARRIAGE OF FAITH AND DEEDS James 2:14-26 1) James 2:14-18. • Faith, like love, is an action word (vs. 14-18). If a man who merely says I wish you well but does not act upon that wish by feeding his fellow man then it is not true faith. True faith expresses itself in love. Gal. 5:6b, ...read more

    Jesus calls us to love to a way of living and being and acting out of a foundation of the revealed, enacted love of God for us, which we then strive to delight in and live out of.

    Doing what we love January 15, 2012 Intro: Last Sunday I began by asking us to create a list of some fictional characters that are well known and generally admired by our culture (show list). Then I asked for some adjectives that we might use to describe these characters, and we brainstormed a ...read more

    Avoiding Dead Faith Series

     | 6,109 views

    James continues to remind us that faith is active. It is not mere mental assent but obediently imitating God by loving our neighbors.

    1. Secret Service A man was coming out of church one day, and the preacher was standing at the door as he always is to shake hands. (You know. The preacher’s job is to: shake them in, shake them up, and shake them out!) Well, he grabbed the guy by the hand and pulled him aside. The preacher ...read more

    James continues the warning against having a lifeless, dead faith by reminding us that even the Adversary and his legion believe in God but do not obey him in proper actions.

    1. Johnny Carson Exorcist Joke When the movie, “The Exorcist” came out, Johnny Carson was the host of the Tonight Show. My very favorite joke he told was about the movie. He asked Ed McMahon, “What happens if you don’t pay your exorcist?” Ed repeated the question and ...read more

    Faith Without Works

     | 5,831 views

    We are sinners saved by grace through faith but how can we prove it, how can we show it? By our words, actions and attitudes, in all of which people, especially non-believers, should see Christ in us.

    James 2: 17 Sermon – Faith without works is dead Let us pray: May the words of my mouth ….. What do we have to do to get to Heaven? – FAITH. As the writer of Hebrews put it in chapter 11 verse 6: “Without faith it is IMPOSSIBLE to please God”. What is ...read more

    Exercising A Dynamic Faith Series

     | 6,207 views

    We have observed dead faith and demonic faith, both of which are useless to us. This lesson focuses in on dynamic faith which is essential. The lesson holds up Abraham and Rahab, two people at opposite ends of the spectrum as examples of proper faith.

    1. Some apparent dilemmas: • “Look before you leap” vs. “He who hesitates is lost.” • Proverbs 26.4-5: 4 Answer not a fool according to his folly, lest you be like him yourself. 5 Answer a fool according to his folly, lest he be wise in his own ...read more

    James And Paul On Works And Faith

     | 11,083 views

    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

    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.

    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
