God's Judgment Series

Contributed by Freddy Fritz on Jan 23, 2009

Talk Is Cheap

Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2019

Actions or works may not create faith but they can reveal the substance and form of a person’s faith. To me, works is our faith made visible. “For just as a body without the spirit is dead” … a corpse … “so faith without works is also dead” … a corpse (James 2:26).

[Put up picture of me on screen.] Let me tell you a little bit about that man in the photo. He was 40 years old when that picture was taken. He was 20 months sober at the time. Well … “sober” is not the right word. He was a dry drunk” … which means that he hadn’t picked up a drink in 20 ...read more

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Nov 3, 2023
