Connect: Actions That Animate Faith, James 2:14-26, Pastor Jeff McVay

“Now someone may argue, “Some people have faith; others have good deeds.” But I say, “How can you show me your faith if you don’t have good deeds? I will show you my faith by my good deeds.”” (James 2:18 NLT-SE)

Pastor Ross spoke today on how a genuine faith transforms how we live each and every day. He walks us through three main points of how genuine faith transforms who we are and questions us to look inside to see how our faith has transformed us.

The Dependance Of Faith and Works Pastor James Burke

A few weeks ago, I highlighted some popular spiritual phrases that are cheap, pointless, and powerless. Phrases like “follow your heart”, find inner peace, sending positive vibes, adjust your okra… I mean Chakra, etc. These are non-biblical phrases spoken by those who think they’re spiritual but are powerless & useless. But Christians also have phrases that are useless when there’s no action behind them , especially on social media. We use them when we feel like we must at least say something or to soothe our conscience, but we do nothing. "I’ll pray for you” offering to pray for people in crisis without any commitment to help when you know you could. Often, we don’t even really pray! This lack of action makes what could be a good thing worthless. “Its all in God’s hands” saying this to someone in crisis, and then leaving them to suffer alone is cold hearted. Especially if God has put you in a place to be His hands, but we don’t even care enough to even lift a finger. “The Lord works in mysterious ways" 1st , how do you know the hardship they’re suffering is the Lord’s work? Couldn’t it be because of evil in this world? 2nd , what if you’re supposed to be part of the Lord’s mysterious work, the part that provides relief in their suffering, but you don’t want to be bothered. What good are those words to anyone? "God will make a way!" Now you can say this one with passion! It's super religious! But saying it with no intention of trying to be part of the “way’ God might be making, well that’s just nice sounding, useless, cheap talk. God won’t ever give you more than you can’t handle.” For personal reasons this is the worst one. I won’t go into it. If we just speak religious phrases to fellow brothers & sisters, especially those in our church family, but aren’t willing to help in earthly, tangible ways, James says this is an important warning sign about our ropes of faith.

Join us today as Elder Marcus Garrett teaches on James 2:14-26. Notes:

The title of today's teaching ("The Great Pretender") immediately reminds us of the Number 1 1955 hit by the Platters. But what Pastor Ben is really referring is to our study of the Book of James. James tells us how God looks deep into our hearts and KNOWS what we are, or rather, who we are. When we have faith, but not good works, are we living a life of saving faith? Find out what Pastor Ben has to say about it as he deciphers verses 14-26 of chapter 2 from the Book of James. We should be constantly changing and growing! Three Types of Faith that Pastor Ben talks about in today's teaching: 1. Dead faith 2. Demonic Faith 3. Dynamic Faith If you are interested in attending our live teachings (Wednesdays @ 7:00 pm & Sundays @ 10:00 am), please visit us at 4218 Boston Ave. Lubbock Texas.

Living faith is Biblical and always bears fruit in righteous actions. Without such proof faith is dead; as are all good works that are not inspired by God-given faith.

Can a person be born-again and their life not change? Is it possible to be a new creation in Christ but not have something in our lives that shows that change? And if we have not changed, are we deceiving ourselves about our faith? This passage in James addresses these questions.

Harvest Bible Fellowship's weekly Message.

Mateo Perez preaches through James's exhortation against the deception of thinking that simple belief in God is enough, even though our works may demonstrate a different reality,

Salvation is a gift from God, through faith in his son Jesus. It is only by grace through faith that we are saved, which was established in Ephesians 2:8-9. This is foundational to the true gospel. We cannot save ourselves, and Christ died so that while we were yet sinners, we can be made right with God. No amount of being good in itself can save us.
