Living the Gospel

“James 2:26: For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” A faith that has zero works is not a saving faith. Abraham was justified by works when he offered his son to die (even though God stopped him). There are many ways that works are shown. A work can be having love for one another and treating our neighbor as good as ourself. We are saved by faith alone but good works follow. We ought to live as citizens of Heaven doing the things that are right. We can trust the Holy Spirit to guide us and rely on God for our salvation and to help us as we walk the journey of life with a saving faith. Works don’t save us but are evidence of salvation. If we are not doing good things we should examine ourselves to make sure we are following and living the Gospel. Amen
