Faith vs Works: Resurrection, Judgment, and What the Bible Really Teaches
from First Century Christianity · host First Century Christianity
Are believers judged by works, or by faith alone?What does the Bible actually teach about resurrection, judgment, and obedience?In this in‑depth Scripture study, we examine faith, works, and judgment through the lens of the entire Bible, not church tradition. Using passages from John, Matthew, Romans, Isaiah, Psalms, Luke, 1 Peter, and the Torah, this teaching explains the resurrection of life, the resurrection of judgment, and why works matter as evidence of faith.This episode challenges common assumptions about “faith alone,” explains why Paul is not a new Moses, and shows how first‑century believers understood obedience, holiness, and righteousness. We also explore early church history, the separation from synagogue worship, and how creeds replaced lived faith.This is not a works‑based salvation message. Salvation is by faith — but biblical faith produces action, and Scripture consistently teaches that judgment is rendered according to deeds.Topics include:Faith and works in ScriptureThe two resurrections explainedJudgment according to deedsIsaiah’s “filthy rags” in contextPaul’s use of the Old TestamentEarly Christian and Messianic faithObedience as the fruit of beliefIf you want a whole‑Bible understanding of faith, works, and judgment, this teaching is for you.Shalom.
