     | 3,830 views

    James tells us that if we want to pursue perfection in Jesus then we have to not show favoritism to others, we must have faith with action and by all means guard our tongues.

    Series: Let’s Do This! Summary of Let’s Do this pt 1! What did we learn last week? 1. We need to be like James and do this by being men and women of prayer. a. We need to have nicknames like “Old Camel Knees”. b. We need to understand what prayer will do for us: i. Prayer ...read more

  • Faith Is An Action Word

    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

    An Expositional Series on the Book of James

    Works Could be a Sign of Faith James 2:10-26 Many times I have asked myself, after meeting someone; “I wonder if this person is saved?” Can you know if someone is saved? Maybe not, but there are in the Bible signs that accompany salvation that point in the direction of someone being ...read more

    Do you have a saving faith? Does your faith work?

    “Faith That Works: A Perfect Match” James 2:14-26 Do you have a saving faith? Let me put it another way; do you have a faith that works? Listen again to verse 14: “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save ...read more

  • Pray Not Prey! Series

    In a world where much is taken in the removal of innocence we can make a difference in prayer. Follow Jesus pattern, prayer and involvement.

    Luke 11: 1-13, Pray don’t prey! Jesus teaches his disciples how to pray. The prayer he teaches them is the Prayer that we now know as ‘The Lord’s Prayer’. He then sums the whole thing about praying up with a bit of a story. Jesus said something like this. “Suppose ...read more

  • Justified By Works - Does James Contradict Paul? Series

    Contributed by Paul Barreca on May 20, 2014
     | 4,251 views

    James and Paul seem to be saying something different about faith. But their message is the same. True faith results in a changed life.

    James’ teaching on Faith seem to contradict what Paul teaches about Faith. I want to answer this question as we our study of James brings us to James’ familiar statement in chapter 2. “Faith without works is dead.” Is James contradicting what Paul writes in Romans, ...read more

  • James And Paul On Works And Faith

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Jun 30, 2012
    based on 9 ratings
     | 11,026 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

    3 Kinds of Faith

    James 2:14-26 What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone? 15 Suppose you see a brother or sister who has no food or clothing, 16 and you say, “Good-bye and have a good day; stay warm and eat well”—but ...read more

  • “pure Religion Reveals Faith Through Work For God” Series

    Contributed by Dave Mcfadden on Jul 8, 2015
     | 5,694 views

    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

    We’re not saved by works, but saved people do God’s work.

I confess. That’s on me. • God’s love is deeper than this snow. I’m so grateful for Gary Pinger’s ...read more

  • Talk Is Cheap

    Contributed by Gordon Pike on Mar 6, 2019
     | 7,357 views

    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

  • Can't Have One Without The Other

    Contributed by Jeffrey Sims on Sep 5, 2015
     | 6,083 views

    Hopefully this sermon will explain that faith moves us to do good works. It also shows that it is our actions that count not just things we say and we should evaluate our spiritual lives regularly

    When I worked for the City around this time of year we started working on our budgets. We would evaluate all of our training programs and try and increase spending in the programs that worked and phase out those that didn’t or weren’t absolutely necessary. Businesses do it all the ...read more

  • Faith In Action Series

    Contributed by Timothy Enns on Nov 12, 2014
     | 8,378 views

    My wife Lindsay, who co-pastors with me preached this sermon in my series and took on this challenging passage about faith and works.James’ readers gave lip service to the faith and then went home and did as they pleased. Applicable for today's church.

    Our passage today from James talks about this often controversial passage from James of faith and action. I would like to read it from Eugene Peterson’s paraphrase (The Message) this morning and then we will look at 3 sections individually from the NLT version. James 2:14-26The Message ...read more
