Stand Alone Sermons

In this week’s passage, we see why James and Paul were pitted against one another. Are we saved by faith alone as Paul said, or are we saved by faith along with works? The answer is that we are saved by faith alone, but there is no such thing as faith that is alone. In other words, real faith will always lead to life change in the believer. Works in no way contribute to a person’s salvation. We are saved by faith, not by works. However, saving faith will produce works. This passage concludes two chapters of tests of faith that James provided to his church. He very much wanted to ensure they had genuine faith! Do you have genuine faith? Do you have life-changing faith?
