This document summarizes the key points made in James 2:14-26 about faith and works. It states that verbal faith alone cannot save, as faith without works is dead. It uses the examples of Abraham and Rahab to show how they were considered righteous not just due to their faith, but because of their actions that demonstrated that faith. While salvation is by faith alone, true faith does not remain alone but is shown through deeds.

Hopeful or Hopeless
The document discusses how some among the Corinthians were saying there is no resurrection of the dead. The author argues that if there is no resurrection then Christ could not have been raised, their preaching is in vain, they would be false witnesses of God, faith is worthless, people who have died in Christ have perished, and those who have hoped in Christ in this life alone are most pitied. The document is a series of slides discussing how faith is based on the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead according to scripture.
Working from rest; commision
This document contains several Bible passages about community, faith, and works. It discusses the Great Commission to make disciples of all nations. It also discusses how faith without works is dead, citing the example of Abraham showing his faith through his willingness to sacrifice Isaac. The document emphasizes that we should love one another as God loved us, and that a person is justified through works, not just faith alone.
All His Benefits - Week 7 Faith
This document discusses the definition and importance of faith. It provides several Bible verses that define faith as confidence and assurance in God even when we cannot see Him. The verses state that faith is how we are saved, how we receive the Holy Spirit, and how we live righteous lives. Having faith can be difficult at times, but faith as small as a mustard seed is powerful. True faith comes from hearing the Word of God.
All His Benefits - Week 2 Love
This document discusses the concept of love through several Bible passages. It first defines love as Jesus laying down his life for humanity, and God sending his Son as a sacrifice for sins. It notes God loved the world so much he gave his Son so that all who believe in him will have eternal life. Another passage says that greater love has no one than to lay down one's life for friends. The document urges readers to comprehend the breadth, length, height and depth of Christ's love, which surpasses knowledge, and to be filled with all the fullness of God. It closes by asking God to direct hearts into his love and Christ's steadfastness.
Ken Fong - Revised Promises - 110403
God radically revised the foundational promises of a sign, place, and people. The holy sign is now faith rather than circumcision. The holy land is the whole world rather than just Canaan. And the holy people are all who have faith in Abraham's God rather than just Abraham's physical descendants. God's grace explodes narrow human views and calls all people into his kingdom through faith.
Romans 4b Abraham is spiritual father of believers
Abraham is considered the spiritual father of all believers because he was justified by faith in God alone, not by following religious rituals like circumcision. The document discusses how Abraham believed God's promise to make him father of many nations despite being old and his wife being barren. It was counted to Abraham as righteousness because of his faith, not works of the law. True faith and relationship with God comes from putting one's trust in Him rather than trying to gain salvation through good deeds.
its amazing
1) The document discusses the amazing love that God has shown us by calling us his children and sending his son Jesus to die for our sins, even while we were still sinners, demonstrating his love for us.
2) It describes how we will be made like Jesus and transformed into his image when he returns, and that by beholding his glory we are changed from glory to glory.
3) It explains that all who have hope in Jesus purify themselves to be as pure as he is, and that those born of God do not practice sin but live righteous lives in obedience to God.

I John 2:28-3:3 Tests for Christians. Do you abide in Christ? Do you practice righteousness? Who knows you? Are you a child of God? Are you pure, just as He is pure? What is your identity?
how big is your god
Ephesians 3:14-21 How big is your God? The ability of my God is boundless. The ability of my God goes beyond my prayers. The ability of my God is beyond my ability to imagine. The ability of my God is manifested in the lives of His people. The ability of my God is seen through His glorious church. The ability of my God is eternal.
Relationship between Faith and Works (2of2)
The document discusses the relationship between faith and works based on passages from the books of James and Romans. It argues that works are the animating principle of vital faith and that faith without works is dead. Good works justify our faith before God and men and show our friendship with God. While salvation comes by grace through faith alone, an absence of good works implies an absence of saving faith. The challenge is to maintain a dynamic faith through obedience to God's word.
Authority 1
This document discusses the importance of authority in religious teachings and obedience. It summarizes Jesus' confrontation with religious authorities who questioned his authority, noting he received authority from God. The document argues that religious teachings must have authority from God, not just human leaders, and believers should obey God over human commands. It provides biblical examples of teachings from God that believers must follow regarding morality, sexuality, and using their bodies for righteousness.

Call no man_father
Jesus commanded his followers to call no man father, as God is the only true Father. He rebuked religious leaders of his time who sought honor and recognition from men rather than humbly serving the people. Today some still exalt religious title and authority over obedience to God's word. True worship is keeping Christ's commandments, not following man-made doctrines. Calling religious leaders "father" breaks the relationship with God as the sole Father and can lead worship to be in vain if not following his word.

1 biblical faith is the key to encounter god
The document discusses biblical faith based on a passage from the book of Mark.
It defines biblical faith as believing in things hoped for but not yet seen, and believing God can do the impossible. It says we should exercise faith by speaking to challenges like mountains, declaring God's desired results in prayer, and forgiving others to remove hindrances. Building faith requires focusing on God's flawless, living, and true word through regular confession and meditation.

Additionally, it discusses how forgiveness and repentance are important parts of prayer.
What's Worth Arguing About? Slides, 1/5/14
Men from Judea came to Antioch teaching that Gentiles must be circumcised according to Mosaic law to be saved, causing dissension. Paul, Barnabas, and others were sent to Jerusalem to meet with apostles and elders. They reported how Gentiles had converted and been filled with the Holy Spirit without circumcision. After debate, the assembly agreed that Gentiles did not need to follow Mosaic law, bringing encouragement, strength and peace to the congregation.

Resuscitating Our Faith
The document discusses the relationship between faith and works according to several passages from the books of James and Genesis in the Bible. It argues that faith without works is dead, using examples from Abraham and Rahab to show that they were justified by their works, not just their faith alone. It also references passages stating that faith comes from God and should be demonstrated through good works to glorify Him. The overall message is that true living faith is evidenced through obedient actions, not just words or beliefs.
James 2: 14-26: Faith and Deeds
The document summarizes key passages from the book of James that address the relationship between faith and deeds. It notes that James emphasizes that faith without works is dead, using the examples of Abraham and Rahab to show that their faith was demonstrated and completed through their actions. In contrast, Paul states that one is justified by faith alone, apart from works of the law. The document discusses different perspectives on what is required for salvation between faith alone and the need for both faith and deeds.
Four Types of Faith
The document discusses different types of faith according to the book of James: 1) Genuine saving faith produces good works but works do not save, 2) Living faith bears fruitful works that advance God's kingdom, 3) Demonic faith is an intellectual belief like demons have, 4) Useless faith does not produce works, 5) True faith like Abraham's is justified by works, and 6) Dead faith is without works. The overall message is that genuine Christian faith is demonstrated through righteous actions, not just words.
DOA
This document is a Bible study on James 2:14-26 about faith and works. It provides commentary on key verses and examples. The main points are:
1) James asks what good is faith without works, using Abraham and Rahab as examples of faith completed through works.
2) Faith alone is not enough; it must be proved through works, or it is dead. Works justify faith.
3) The study concludes that God saves us by faith, but our works prove our living faith in God. We should do good works to show our faith is alive.
James 2 faith without works
This document discusses the relationship between faith and works. It argues that faith without works is dead. It uses the examples of Abraham offering Isaac and Rahab hiding the spies to show that their faith was demonstrated through their actions. True faith will necessarily be accompanied by works as evidence of that faith. A person who claims to have faith but does nothing to help those in need is not showing genuine faith. One's faith should compel them to visible intercession and action on behalf of others.
Vintage james2 7.14.13
The document discusses the relationship between faith and deeds. It argues that faith without deeds is useless and dead. It provides several examples from scripture: Abraham was considered righteous because of his deeds in offering his son Isaac, and Rahab was considered righteous because of her deeds in helping the spies. True faith is demonstrated through actions that express love.
Work Out Your Faith
The document summarizes a sermon on different types of faith based on James 2:14-26. It discusses three types of faith: 1) a dead faith, which is faith without deeds; 2) a deceptive faith, where even demons have faith in God's existence; and 3) an authentic, dynamic faith, exemplified by Abraham and Rahab, where faith is demonstrated through actions. The sermon uses their examples to argue that faith without deeds is useless, and that a person is made righteous through faith demonstrated by what they do, not by faith alone.
JAMES 8 -JESUS WORKS YOUR WORKS - PTR JOVEN SORO - 630PM EVENING SERVICE
This document is a summary of James 2:14-26 from the Bible. It discusses three types of faith: dead faith, which is mere words without actions; demonic faith, which believes in God but lacks transformation; and dynamic faith, which is demonstrated through obedience and good works. Dynamic faith is illustrated through the examples of Abraham offering Isaac and Rahab protecting the messengers, showing that true faith is proven through works and not just words alone.

This document provides a summary and commentary on James 2:14-26 from the Bible Exposition Commentary series. It examines the relationship between faith and works, outlining three types of faith mentioned: dead faith involving just the intellect; demonic faith involving the intellect and emotions; and dynamic faith involving the whole person through the mind, emotions, and will, leading to obedience and good works. It uses the examples of Abraham and Rahab to illustrate dynamic faith justified by works, not just words. The overall message is that true saving faith is demonstrated through righteous obedience and actions, not just empty words or feelings.

It also references how Jesus modeled works through his preaching, teaching, and acts of compassion. The overall message is that works glorify God and strengthen our relationship with him by perfecting our faith.
Overcoming the world
The document discusses three major ways Christians can overcome the world: prayer, faith, and developing Christ-like character. It provides biblical examples for each: prayer involves asking God for help and trusting his response; faith means believing God's promises without doubting; and character focuses on living with love, righteousness, holiness and seeking God above all else. The overall message is that through relying on God through prayer and having faith in him, and striving to become more like Christ in character, believers can overcome sinful desires and withstand worldly influences.
faith that saves
This document discusses the relationship between faith and works in Christianity. It argues that true faith is demonstrated through works, and that we will be judged based on our deeds, not just our beliefs. Over several sections, it makes the case that: 1) Faith without works is dead; 2) Christians cannot separate their faith from their works; 3) Works are involved in our salvation process; and 4) We will be judged according to our deeds, not just our claimed faith. The overall message is that true saving faith in Christianity necessarily involves righteous actions and obedience to God's commands.

It uses the examples of Abraham and Rahab to illustrate dynamic faith, noting that both showed their justifying faith through their works of obedience to God. The commentary emphasizes that true saving faith necessarily results in good works.
James work
This passage from James discusses the relationship between faith and works. It argues that faith without works is dead, using several biblical examples to show how people were justified by their works, not just their faith alone. Abraham offering Isaac, Rahab hiding the spies, and their faith being "completed" or "perfected" by their works. True faith is demonstrated through works of obedience to God. The document also discusses different types of "work" mentioned in the Bible - the work of God in creation and salvation, the work of man in obedience and provision, and religious works which can become sinful if they replace God's grace.
The Danger of Dead Faith
If the stats are correct, there are a lot of people claiming Christianity whose lives are no different from anyone else. What does God think about that?
the importance of good works
Galatians 6:9-10. The importance of good works.
I. WE ARE NOT SAVED BECAUSE OF OUR GOOD WORKS
II. YET CHRISTIANS ARE ABSOLUTELY EXPECTED TO WORK
III. GOD WILL JUDGE ACCORDING TO OUR WORKS
IV. GOOD WORKS ARE MEANINGFUL IN LIGHT OF OTHER DOCTRINES
V. PREPARATION FOR GOOD WORKS
A. Do you understand the balance between faith and works?
B. Are you prepared for judgment according to your works?
C. Are you under God’s grace as a child of God?

JAMES 8 - JESUS' WORKS, YOUR WORKS - PTR ALVIN GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNOON SERVICEFaithworks Christian Church
The document discusses the relationship between faith and works. It summarizes the perspectives of James and Paul, arguing that they do not contradict each other. James emphasizes that true faith is demonstrated through works, while Paul emphasizes that salvation comes through faith alone, not works. The document identifies three types of faith: dead faith with no works, demonic faith that knows facts but does not transform lives, and dynamic faith that is demonstrated through obedience and good works. It concludes that Christians are saved by grace through faith to do good works, not by works themselves.BELIEVE TO SEE 02 - FAITH THAT RESTORES - PTR. JOSHUA GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNO...
BELIEVE TO SEE 02 - FAITH THAT RESTORES - PTR. JOSHUA GUTIERREZ - 4PM AFTERNO...Faithworks Christian Church
This document discusses faith and restoration through several Bible passages. It notes that faith is not knowing what will happen but knowing God will hold the future. Extraordinary life comes from God's power combined with our faith. It references the parable of the prodigal son to show how God restores what was broken when we have faith. Faith gives hope and responding to circumstances with faith allows God to work. God restores things to a place greater than before when we place our brokenness in his hands through faith.Romans 2b All need a Savior
Real faith is demonstrated through obedience to God's word, not just belief. True believers will be doers of God's word and not hearers only, as faith without works is dead. All people, whether Jew or Gentile, have sinned and fall short of God's standard, so all need a savior to save them from their sins and the judgment to come.

The Example of Sodom
This document summarizes lessons from the biblical story of Lot in Genesis 19 and 1 Corinthians 10-11. It discusses how Lot represents a backslider who was prestigious in Sodom but powerless to stop its wickedness. His wife looked back and became a pillar of salt. His sons-in-law and daughters schemed wickedly. The Sodomites flaunted their sins. Christians should follow the righteousness of the angels and peace of Abraham, remembering God's redemption of Lot and the lineage of Moab.

The Testing Of Your Faith
Hagar fled from her mistress Sarah into the desert, where an angel found her near a spring. The spring was located beside the road to Shur. The angel told Hagar to return to Sarah and submit to her authority, though her descendants would be too numerous to count.
The Lord, The Devil, And The Believer
This sermon discusses a Bible passage where Jesus warns Peter that Satan wants to test his faith and that Peter will deny knowing Jesus three times before the rooster crows. The sermon says this reveals that the Devil seeks to destroy believers' faith, but is limited by God's permission. It also shows that believers like Peter are in need of God's grace due to their own failings and overconfidence, but can be transformed through Christ's power, as happened when Peter later preached at Pentecost.

What To Do When Faith Falters
God calls Abram to leave his country and go to the land God will show him. God promises to make Abram into a great nation and bless those who bless him. Abram leaves with his wife Sarai and nephew Lot. When a famine occurs, Abram goes to Egypt for food. To protect himself, Abram claims Sarai is his sister, which leads Pharaoh to take her into his household. God afflicts Pharaoh and his household for Sarai's sake, and Pharaoh returns Sarai to Abram and sends them away.
The Rise And Fall Of Babel
The passage describes how the people united to build a great city and tower that would reach to the heavens.

It seems that current missionary work requires spending a lot of money, preparing a lot of materials, and traveling to far away places, so that it feels like missionary work. But what was the result they brought back? It's just a lot of photos of activities, fun eating, drinking and some playing games. And then we have to do the same thing next year, never ending. The church once mentioned that a certain missionary would go to the field where she used to work before the end of his life. It seemed that if she had not gone, no one would be willing to go. The reason why these missionary work is so difficult is that no one obeys God’s words, and the Bible is not the main content during missionary work, because in the eyes of those who do not obey God’s words, the Bible is just words and cannot be connected with life, so Reading out God's words is boring because it doesn't have any life experience, so it cannot be connected with human life. I will give a few examples in the hope that this situation can be changed. A375

What To Do When Faith Doesnt Work
- 1. James 2:14-26 Anthony Grove Baptist Church Rev. Ken Faulkenbury October 18, 2009
- 11. Matthew 7:19-20 19 Every tree that does not bear good fruit is cut down and thrown into the fire. 20 Thus, by their fruit you will recognize them. (NIV)
- 15. Example: Rahab James 2:25-26 25 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? 26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead. (NIV) Joshua 2:6 (But she had taken them up to the roof and hidden them under the stalks of flax she had laid out on the roof.) (NIV)
