J AMES 2:14-26 Little Dreamer…

J AMES Key Verse: But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves- James 1:22 (NKJ)

J AMES Faith is not just what I: Say What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? – vs. 14

J AMES Feel Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it?...

J AMES …In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead – vs Just as words are not the same as clothing and food, neither are feelings the same as faith

J AMES Think But someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do – vs. 18 BToL- Our faith was never meant to be kept between God and us alone

J AMES Believe You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that-- and shudder. You foolish man, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? – vs The demons have the good sense to shiver in fear…

J AMES Faith is what I do: Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did…

J AMES And the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness," and he was called God's friend. You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone – vs Abraham was considered the greatest of all Jewish ancestors

J AMES In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead- vs

J AMES Rahab was a prostitute Point: When it comes to faith, who I am is not nearly as important as Who I - by my actions- trust

J AMES God didn’t change me only for me. He changed me so I could change the world
