Intro
Story how belief matters
Explanation
Faith according to James
Requires Action
Requires Compassion
Requires Evidence
Proposition
Faith works on you.
Faith Requires Action
James 2:
What good is IT
Brothers and Sisters - we are in this together.
What I’m about to say is hard but it is said with love.
IT =
Claim of faith
no deeds to accompany faith
If you REALLY believe something it changes your behavior
When I get up in the morning to go to work, it’s because I believe some things
Im going to do something to provide for my family’s needs
I believe I’m going to be around people that need Him and God might use me to reach them.
so I go.
my parents taught me to look both ways to cross the street....
If my breath stinks people will avoid me.
almost everything we do is because we believe there is some benefit or detriment if we do or don’t do it.
If you have a belief that Christ came to save and it does not change anything… then there is a real problem.
Can that faith save?
A resounding no.
We do things and don’t do things to prolong or at lease make this life we live today better.
HOW MUCH MORE should we do or not do things because we have been rescued from eternal damnation and brought to eternal life.
if we REALLY believe the Son of God loved us so much that he Died for us so that we would be cleansed, and he lives in our hearts if we REALLY believe that and there is no outward expression of that well, then we don’t REALLY believe.
Faith Requires Compassion
James 2:15
His Love Toward Us
How deep the Father’s love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a writh His treasure
John 3:16
How
Mark 1:41
Our Love Towards Him
John 21:
His desire is that we love him
That love is demonstrated in a few ways
If we believe him we will put His words into practice
Matthew
Mathew 12:
If He Fait inside us, His love will come out of us.
its commanded.
it’s our sign
Faith Requires Evidence
James 2:18-
I’ve been talking about how James will often leave us feeling guilty.
It is impossible to answer the impossible questions?
Do we love enough?
Do we believe enough?
Are we doing enough?
In fact, if we stay there, we can only find the answer that there is always something else we could have done… and there really is no excuse.
Abraham believed.
He had a faith so strong he was willing to kill his son for it.
He believed he heard from God and packed his bag and took his family to a place that he didn’t even know where he was going...... God took a normal person and made a father of nations.
Rahab was a prostitute.
No one even know why she harbored the Israelite spies.
But she had Faith and God gave His people the promised land through it.
And she entered the geneology in Jesus Christ.
The normal, the bad, the unlikely....... YOU
The thing about faith is that God uses it to make you great.
That’s the evidence.
If you believe--- God will use you
Im a pastor
