    Jesus warns us to assess the genuineness of our faith and be prepared for His return. Do we look like the Church, but are devoid of the Holy Spirit? Instead of lives transformed by the power of Christ, are our lives more like performance art? Jesus is coming at any moment! Are you prepared?

    INTRODUCTION Do you agree that in God’s master plan, there is no such thing as “coincidence”? A few weeks ago, your pastor asked if I would be willing to preach today. Not only did I tell him “Yes!” on the spot, but I also told him that I knew exactly what I wanted to preach. You see, God had ...read more

    There is a lot of debate about Faith vs. Works, but when we look at God's word we see Faith and works are combined. We cannot have faith without works, because faith is an action word. This lesson explores this concept through the Lady Be Good.

    Opening Story; The Lady Be Good The year 1942 was a dark day of World War II. Britain under Churchill stood alone against Adolf Hitler. The United States under Roosevelt was in the process of mobilizing. Churchill’s labour deputy Prime Minister said, “Our Prime Minister wins every ...read more

    Paul and James agree. Faith works. How? Here's where we need both of these to help us understand.

Does James hold a gospel that teaches justification by faith with works while Paul’s gospel teaches justification by faith without works? Because James is so strong on works ...read more

     | 2,916 views

    This is 5th of 11 Studies in the Book of James. In this study we'll be looking at the fact that faith that is not followed up with a life of love and obedience is no faith at all. Connections are made with the faith of Abraham and that of Rahab as well.

    James 2:14-17 “What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things ...read more
