Sermon: Discerning Living and Active Faith

“Discerning Living and Active Faith” James 2:14-19 February 12, 2023 Pastor Nathan Currey Sermon Application [file]   ----more---- James 2:14 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 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!  It's absolutely critical for every Christian to understand the relationship between their faith and their works. Faith that's Professed must also be Possessed        Faith Alone Saves but that Faith is Never Alone       Faith that knows Jesus must Willingly Submit to Jesus
