James 2:14-26For more information about Sojourn Montrose, visit sojournmontrose.org
Those who possess true, saving faith, will manifest a measure of the "produce of grace" in their lives: good works. Faith in God's existence and reality is something that even the demons possess, and if faith does not possess works, it is dead.
What good is your faith if it sits on the bench instead of stepping into the game? James warns us today that true faith doesn't stay idle. It moves, takes action, and meets the needs of those around us. Faith that doesn't act is dead—lifeless, useless, and disconnected from God's purpose. So, is your faith alive and thriving? Or does your faith need a resurrection? Welcome to the Daily Devo. Our text today is James 2:14-17. What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 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? So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. — James 2:14-17 To be clear, James isn't suggesting that works save us. Salvation is by faith alone, through the finished work of Christ on the Cross. What James is saying is this: true, saving faith produces visible evidence. A faith that doesn't show itself in action is not alive—it's counterfeit. James' message cuts straight to the heart of Christian apathy. If we claim to follow Christ, we can't just say it; we must show it. If I believe in a God who loves, then my life must overflow with love. If I trust a God who provides, my actions should reflect generosity. And if I know a God who forgives, then I must extend forgiveness and mercy to others. Faith that works isn't optional—it's essential. James paints a vivid picture: if you see someone shivering in the cold and starving and all you offer are empty words, “You've got this!” you're missing the point entirely. They don't “got this.” They're cold. They're hungry. Real faith doesn't drive by; it stops, steps in, and meets the need. Here's the hard truth: selfishness and a desire for convenience lie at the root of dead faith. We avoid helping because it disrupts our plans, our comfort, or our resources. But a living faith embraces the inconvenience because it reflects the sacrificial love of Christ. Faith that works, works. This year, don't just proclaim your faith—live it. God didn't just say He loved us; He demonstrated it by sending Jesus to die for our sins. Jesus' sacrifice is the ultimate act of faith in action. If you've experienced His love, let it move you to love, serve, and act in ways that reflect Him. Take a moment to examine your heart. Is your faith alive and active, or does it need a resurrection? Confess where you've fallen short and ask God to breathe life into your faith so it overflows into your actions. Lord, I confess that my faith has been stagnant in too many areas of my life. Thank You for showing me mercy through Jesus. Help me to live out my faith by meeting the needs of those around me and showing Your love through my actions. Amen. If you're ready to get off the bench and into the game, write “I'm in the game” in the comments below. Let's live a faith that moves, reflecting the God who moved heaven and earth to save us. Join me tomorrow as we continue our study through James! ASK THIS: How does your daily life show evidence of your faith? When have you chosen convenience over meeting someone's need? What steps can you take to make your faith more active? Does your faith reflect the sacrificial love of Christ?

Message by Doug Bunnell, recorded live April 28, 2024 at First Presbyterian Church of Bellingham. Scripture read by our 3rd graders! Dead Faith is Useless Faith is not belief, faith is living in trust that God will really come through. How is James distinguishing a life of faith from a life of work? How might James show his faith by his works? What does he mean that even the demons believe? In verse 24,James says we are justified by works and faith, how do we square this with Paul saying we are saved by grace through faith and not by works? What might a dead faith look like? What might a living faith look like? DEAD FAITH IS USELESS Faith and Works 14 What use is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone says he has faith, but he has no works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and be filled,” yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that? 17 In the same way, faith also, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself. 18 But someone may well say, “You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.” 19 You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder. 20 But are you willing to acknowledge, you foolish person, that faith without works is useless? 21 Was our father Abraham not justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected; 23 and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “And Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called a friend of God. 24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 In the same way, was Rahab the prostitute not justified by works also when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? 26 For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
Is all faith saving faith? James writes to an audience that claims faith and gives some hard counsel to help them to understand what kind of faith is able to save. -- Sermon by Pastor Nate Click -- New to Heritage?

Pastor Zach Schlegel | Revelation 3:1-6
Join us as the book of James questions whether our faith is alive or dead.
Old western movies would have a wanted poster. Wanted: Dead or Alive. That would mean the person would really be wanted. So, How about faith? You want it Dead or Alive? Or better yet, your faith…..is it Dead or Alive? And how would you know? The bible talks about a dead faith and by default, then shows an alive faith. It is like static or active faith. And I am not talking about the faith needed for salvation, but for a faith to be active you take a pinch of faith, mix in some works and there you go. Alive, active faith. Atrophy is a term that means decline in effectiveness or vigor due to underuse or neglect. That would be dead faith. Activate your faith. Here are some ways to do that.

Series: James - A Faith That Hits Home
As we continue our walk through James, we see in James 2, that James is teaching that faith without works is dead. This is not to be confused with James saying that our salvation is based on works. Instead, James is talking about two types of faith: dead faith and saving faith. Our salvation is not based on works. Saving faith produces works. If faith has no action, then this faith is dead. Faith without works is dead, but saving faith brings life through Jesus Christ our Lord. Listen to this sermon about dead faith versus saving faith in the eighth part of our In The Word series, walking through James.Check out our video version of this episode: https://youtu.be/23Dk2bnyNsYSubscribe to our YouTube channel here: youtube.com/chestnutmountainchurchLearn more about us at chestnutmountain.orgFollow us on Facebook & Instagram @chestnutmtn_Don't forget to subscribe to this podcast, leave a review, and let us know what you think.

Statehouse bills to protect citizens against large, potentially harmful water withdrawals are likely dead. Public schools may soon be required to let students attend religious instruction. U.S. Senator Todd Young says he's pleased to see Indiana embrace tech manufacturing projects, like a new semiconductor plant in southwest Indiana. Tank leaks at B-P's Whiting Refinery in northwest Indiana sent toxic pollution into the air for the past two weeks - residents reported headaches, dizziness and general malaise.
