You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a ...read more

    Faith And Good Deeds Series

    Contributed by Brady Boyd on Jun 1, 2020
     | 3,907 views

    James seems to be contradicting Paul, who taught that salvation was by faith and not by works. Martin Luther even called the book of James, a “Strawy Epistle.” James and Paul were not at odds, though.

    Continuation of the series "Who We are in Christ." We are called to be an influence in the world.

    Who are we “in Christ?” What is our purpose “in Christ?" Think on that for a moment. If we are “in Christ” we are “saved.” We talked about that we are “a new creation in Christ” (2 Corinthians 5:17). If there was no further purpose for us on earth after our conversion, why are we not taken ...read more
