Dead Faith VS Living Faith (Abraham: James 2:14-25)

<p><span style="font-size: 24pt;"><strong>TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:</strong></span></p> <p> JAMES 2:14-26 - What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index= "1">15 </span>If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="3">16 </span>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? <span class= "notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="5">17 </span>So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead. <span class= "notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="7">18 </span>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. <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="9">19 </span>You believe that God is one; you do well. Even the demons believe—and shudder! <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index= "11">20 </span>Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? <span class= "notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="13">21 </span>Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="15">22 </span>You see that faith was active along with his works, and faith was completed by his works; <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index= "17">23 </span>and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God. <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index= "19">24 </span>You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index="21">25 </span>And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? <span class="notion-enable-hover" data-token-index= "23">26 </span>For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.</p> <p><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong>MENTIONED ON THIS EPISODE:</strong></span></p> <p><span style="font-size: 18pt;"><strong><em>Submit a prayer request or praise:</em></strong> <a href= "https://MorningMindestMedia.com/prayer">https://MorningMindestMedia.com/prayer</a> </span></p> <hr /> <hr /> <p><strong>ADDITIONAL RESOURCES</strong></p> <p><strong>🌟 BECOME A MONTHLY PARTNER:</strong><br /> <a href= "https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/support">https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/support</a> (NOT tax-decuctable)</p> <p><strong>🔥 DONATE ONE-TIME: </strong><a href= "https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/donate">https://MorningMindsetMedia.com/donate</a> (NOT tax-decuctable)</p> <p> </p>
