Is Your Faith Alive?
14 What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can [a]that faith save him? 17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is [c]dead, being by itself. (James 2:14,17)
Where is your Life investment?
James 1:13-15 New American Standard Bible (NASB) 13 Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am being tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, and He Himself does not tempt anyone. 14 But each one is tempted when he is carried away and enticed by his own lust. 15 Then when lust has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and when sin is accomplished, it brings forth death.
God, What are You Doing?
