Faith Displayed: Works that Witness

In this message from the Epistle of James chapter 2, Pastor Jason Boothe examines one of the most discussed and often misunderstood passages in all of Scripture: “faith without works is dead.” What does James mean by this? How do faith and works relate in the life of the believer? With careful attention to the text and a clear gospel focus, Pastor Boothe explains that God’s people are free to love the brethren and those outside the household of faith. Our works do not earn salvation; they can, however, bear witness to those around us of the saving grace imputed to us through Christ. The mercy of God in Christ motivates His people to be quick to listen, slow to speak, slow to anger, yet quick to love!
