Episode notes
Faith Is Proven By Visible Works
- True faith is evidenced by righteous works and visible change in life.
- Dead faith is mere words with no obedient deeds and therefore saves nothing.
Intellectual Belief Isn’t Saving Faith
- A person can intellectually assent to gospel facts yet lack saving faith if life remains unchanged.
- James offers tests to evaluate whether claimed faith is living or dead.
Be A Doer, Not A Hearer
- Do be a doer of God's Word rather than a forgetful hearer who never changes.
- Continue in Scripture and put it into practice to manifest blessing in your deeds.
