Pastor Matt Hilbert - In James 2:14-26, James makes clear that faith without works is dead and that genuine, living faith must be lived out in daily life. James goes on to show us what living faith looks like. Living faith loves others, living faith is more than just having the right doctrine, living faith finds its purpose in works and living faith is proven to be genuine by our works. This passage serves as a call to examine ourselves to see whether our faith is living or dead.
