"What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, 'Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,' but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead." James 2:14-17
What a bold statement the Holy Spirit makes through James!! I was so convicted tonight as Jeff spoke in class about faith without deeds. I am so guilty of this and it makes me cringe. He gave many good ideas about things we can do and standing around after class talking with people, many more came up. This world is crying for action. Screaming for it. I want to get out there and do something.
"Can such faith save him?"
