((( FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ))) A TRUE CHRISTIANS FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST MUST INCLUDE WORKS. THE CHRISTIANS WORKS DEMONSTRATE THAT HIS FAITH IS GENUINE, AND THAT HE ACTUALLY BELIEVE THE WORD OF GOD, AND IS WILLING TO OBEY IT. ------------------------------------------------------ EPH 2:8 AND 9. WE ARE SAVED BY GRACE THROUGH FAITH, AND NOT OF OURSELVES, FOR ITS THE GIFT OF GOD, AND NOT OF WORKS, LEST ANY MAN SHOULD BOAST. HOWEVER, THE FOLLOWING VERSE, EPH 2:10 SAYS THAT WE ARE HIS WORKMANSHIP, CREATED IN CHRIST JESUS UNTO (( GOOD WORKS )), WHICH GOD HAS BEFORE ORDAINED THAT WE SHOULD WALK IN THEM. --------------------------------------------------------- JAMES 2:20. BUT WILL THOU KNOW, O VAIN MAN, THAT FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ? ---------------------------------------------------------- JAMES 2:26. FOR AS THE BODY WITHOUT THE SPIRIT IS DEAD, SO FAITH WITHOUT WORKS IS DEAD ALSO. ----------------------------------------------------------- JAMES 1:22. BE YE DOERS OF THE WORD, AND NOT HEARERS ONLY DECEIVING YOURSELVES. ------------------------------------------------------------ HEB 5:9. JESUS HAS BECOME THE AUTHOR OF ETERNAL SALVATION UNTO ALL THEM WHO OBEY HIM.
