Church notes - 22nd January 2023
James 2:14 - 26
Faith and Actions
Actions should be lived out from faith.
Favouritism - Social status being brought into church.
Ch 2:1 -13
We have Scripture and the Spirit to help us understand what actions to take.
Only Jesus has the power we need.
Social status can be a habit that creates division.
Justification
- Declared to be right standing (Paul)
- Displayed to be in right standing (James)
Complementary rather than contradictory.
Faith alone saves.
Saving faith is shown by our actions.
