“Living Faith” Part One – James 2:14-19 | March 26, 2023 | Pastor Chad Friestad
Did you know there’s no such thing as dead faith? You either have living faith or no faith at all. Because true faith is alive through the power of Jesus Christ. This Sunday, as we look at James 2:14-19, we’ll talk about characteristics of living faith – that it receives, empowers, and obeys.
James 2:14-19
Faith Without Works Is Dead
14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good[a] is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 19 You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder!
