Faith - Faith requires works

VERSE:

James 2:14-17

14 What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is without clothing and in need of daily food, 16 and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, be warmed and be filled," and yet you do not give them what is necessary for their body, what use is that? 17 Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.

LESSON:

Faith - Faith requires works

In this verse. we are told that if you have faith you must have works. If you have faith without works, then you really do not have the faith that you claim that you have. They are inseparable. They go together. Faith without works...is dead.
