It is possible to have a useless faith - one that is characterized by words instead of action. In our text today, James pushes us to examine our own profession of faith to see if it is true, saving faith.
The Bible tells us to “do god works.” So, what exactly are good works? More specifically, is what we do for a living a ‘good work?” Do our careers and businesses count? Let's dig into this. The answers may belief-changing for your career and/or your business. ************************************************************************ Dave Kahle's goal is to provide sales leaders and small businesspeople with practical actionable ideas that can make an immediate impact on your sales performance.

A new MP3 sermon from Grace Audio Treasures is now available on SermonAudio with the following details: Title: #5. The Scriptures and GOOD WORKS Subtitle: Pink, Profiting from the Word Speaker: A. W. Pink Broadcaster: Grace Audio Treasures Event: Devotional Date: 5/7/2025 Bible: 2 Timothy 3:16-17; James 1:22 Length: 3 min.
2 Timothy 3:16-17, "All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work." The ultimate test of whether we are truly profiting from the Word is not how much we know--but how we live. Scripture never flatters the intellect while bypassing the life. It searches the heart and demands fruit. A head full of doctrine without a life full of good works--is a barren tree, destined not for praise, but for punishment. The Word of God rightly received, sanctifies the soul, and energizes the hands. It molds the heart after Christ, and moves the believer to live for the glory of God in every sphere of life.Good works are not the root of salvation, but they are the necessary fruit. They are not the means of gaining favor with God, but the inevitable result of having received His grace. As it is written, "We are God's workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." (Ephesians 2:10). The Scriptures instruct us in what is good, rebuke us when we fail, and spur us onward with divine promises and holy examples.A man profits from the Word when he is led to live a life of active godliness--when his thoughts, speech, and conduct, begin to reflect that of the Lord Jesus. The love of God revealed in the Scriptures, will stir him to love both God and others. The mercy of God extended to him, will cause him to show mercy. The humility of Christ displayed in the Gospels, will produce in him a servant's heart. The commands of God will no longer be grievous, but his delight.Let no one imagine that good works consist m

Welcome to the audio podcast for Dogwood Church in Athens, TX.
In the conclusion of the sermon series, we look at Jesus as the image of God and how that translates to us being the Imagers of God.
This sermon series begins with a look at God's intent to create man in His own image. Rev'd Femi gives an exposition on Jesus as the image of God.
In the second part of this series, Rev'd Femi provides a detailed look into the location called Eden in Genesis 2.
We take a detailed look at Man's free moral agency and his abilility to choose. We separate God's foreknowledge from Adam's decision to sin.
We look at the duality of the new kind of man Jesus came to exemplify. One with the ability to function in both the natural and supernatural realms
This sermon from Ephesians 2 and Lord's Day 24 of the Heidelberg Catechism unpacks the role of good works in the Christian life. While we are justified by grace alone through faith — not by works — good works are the fruit of our union with Christ. They don't earn salvation but flow from it, revealing God's handiwork and glorifying Him. Though imperfect, our works are graciously rewarded by a loving Father.
If someone truly believes something, that belief should be evident in their behavior. Some would say it *will* be 100% of the time. Does that mean that faith is always manifested in good works? Let's look at what the Bible says.

"And so we are going to establish a school for the service of the Lord. In founding it we hope to introduce nothing harsh or burdensome. But if a certain strictness results… do not be at once dismayed and fly from the way of salvation, whose entrance cannot but be narrow." In this first of five episodes, we begin The Rule of St. Benedict, a foundational spiritual guide composed around 530 AD by St. Benedict of Nursia, the father of Western monasticism. In the Prologue, St. Benedict sets forth the Rule's purpose, followed by Chapters 1–7, in which he outlines the kinds of monks, the qualities of an abbot, the Instruments of Good Works as a monk's daily guide, and the Rule's core principles of obedience, silence, and humility.

Paul expressed his gratitude for what God had done in the lives of the Thessalonians. He saved them, not just in what they are saved from, but in what they are saved to become. Paul prayed for “our Lord Jesus Christ, and God our Father,” to continue strengthening these Christians. God doesn't just expect people to do good through […]
Paragraph 5 We cannot by our best works merit pardon of sin or eternal life at the hand of God, by reason of the great disproportion that is between them and the glory to come, and the infinite distance that is between us and God, whom by them we can neither profit nor satisfy for the debt of our former sins;14 but when we have done all we can, we have done but our duty, and are unprofitable servants; and because they are good they proceed from his Spirit,15 and as they are wrought by us they are defiled and mixed with so much weakness and imperfection, that they cannot endure the severity of God's punishment.16 14 Rom. 3:20; Eph. 2:8–9; Rom. 4:6 15 Gal. 5:22–23 16 Isa. 64:6; Ps. 43:2 — Paragraph 6 Yet notwithstanding the persons of believers being accepted through Christ, their good works also are accepted in him;17 not as though they were in this life wholly unblamable and unreprovable in God's sight, but that he, looking upon them in his Son, is pleased to accept and reward that which is sincere, although accompanied with many weaknesses and imperfections.18 17 Eph. 1:5; 1 Pet. 1:5 18 Matt. 25:21,23; Heb. 6:10 — Paragraph 7 Works done by unregenerate men, although for the matter of them they may be things which God commands, and of good use both to themselves and to others;19 yet because they proceed not from a heart purified by faith,20 nor are done in a right manner according to the Word,21 nor to a right end, the glory of God,22 they are therefore sinful, and cannot please God, nor make a man meet to receive the grace from God,23 and yet their neglect for them is more sinful and displeasing to God.24 19 2 Kings 10:30; 1 Kings 21:27,29 20 Gen. 4:5; Heb. 11:4,6 21 1 Cor. 13:1 22 Matt. 6:2,5 23 Amos 5:21–22; Rom. 9:16; Titus 3:5 24 Job 21:14–15; Matt. 25:41–43

— Paragraph 2 These good works, done in obedience to God's commandments, are the fruits and evidences of a true and lively faith;3 and by them believers manifest their thankfulness,4 strengthen their assurance,5 edify their brethren, adorn the profession of the gospel,6 stop the mouths of the adversaries, and glorify God,7 whose workmanship they are, created in Christ Jesus thereunto,8 that having their fruit unto holiness they may have the end eternal life.9 3 James 2:18,22 4 Ps. 116:12–13 5 1 John 2:3,5; 2 Pet. 1:5–11 6 Matt. 5:16 7 1 Tim. 6:1; 1 Pet. 2:15; Phil. 1:11 8 Eph. 2:10 9 Rom 6:22 — Paragraph 3 Their ability to do good works is not at all of themselves, but wholly from the Spirit of Christ;10 and that they may be enabled thereunto, besides the graces they have already received, there is necessary an actual influence of the same Holy Spirit, to work in them to will and to do of his good pleasure;11 yet are they not hereupon to grow negligent, as if they were not bound to perform any duty, unless upon a special motion of the Spirit, but they ought to be diligent in stirring up the grace of God that is in them.12 10 John 15:4–5 11 2 Cor. 3:5; Phil. 2:13 12 Phil. 2:12; Heb. 6:11–12; Isa. 64:7 — Paragraph 4 They who in their obedience attain to the greatest height which is possible in this life, are so far from being able to supererogate, and to do more than God requires, as that they fall short of much which in duty they are bound to do.13 13 Job 9:2–3; Gal. 5:17; Luke 17:10 —
