Preaching Faith Seen Through Works to High School Students at Faith Bible Church in Edmond, Oklahoma
Abstract
dc:description.abstractThis project is series of seven sermons in the book of James which seeks to exposit selected Scriptures in light of biblical theology. James was an extremely effective communicator, who used vivid illustrations to drive home his point that the Christian faith is a working faith. While salvation for James was dependent on faith, true saving faith is evidenced through the fruits of a believer’s life. Through continual use of the wisdom literature and the teachings of Jesus from the Sermon on the Mount, James shows the reader of this epistle that faith was never meant to be an isolated ideology in the life of a believer. Instead, faith serves as the catalyst for living a life in honor of the Lord. Therefore, the believer’s call is to hear the Word of God and live out their life in submission to Him, for without works, faith is void of all life.
