James 2:22 “YOU SEE THAT FAITH WAS ACTIVE ALONG WITH HIS WORKS, AND FAITH WAS COMPLETED BY HIS WORKS.”
James tells us that Abraham’s faith was ACTIVE. He didn’t have passive faith. There was an outward demonstration that he had faith in God.
James knew that we are saved by grace through faith alone but he also understood that what we believe must be demonstrated by the way we TALK, ACT and LIVE.
The Greek word translated ‘COMPLETED’ in this passage means, “TO CARRY THROUGH COMPLETELY.” How we live is evidence that our faith in God is complete or genuine.
What do your actions reveal about your faith in God? Do you have works that are ACTIVE TOGETHER WITH YOUR FAITH?
Have a great day and LIVE YOUR FAITH OUT LOUD.
God bless and lots’a love,
Warren
