Faith That Works: Healing in Church (20-20)

Today, we wrap-up our 4-week series in the book of James entitled: Faith that works... And as we do so, reflecting on the Word of God, it’s important that we learn that... Healing is not a divine right of the children of God. It is an action of grace when the sovereign God deems it for His glory and our long term good. 

(James 5:13-20)

Faith That Works: Prayer and Healing (19-20)

There is a basic principle, prayer and praise are for all of life. It is for all of life because it is needed in all of life. 

(James 5:13-18)

Faith That Works: Faithful until the End (18-20)

Endurance is not the same thing as patience. We may endure with angry or bitter spirits. But the Word of God calls us to patience which blossoms into faithfulness. 

(James 5:7-12)

Faith That Works: Warning to the Rich (17-20)

You know, there are many people who think that being rich is the optimum life! Well, in today's study, James warns us of the dangers of wealth. 

(James 5:1-6)

Faith That Works: Pride and Humility (16-20)

As we enter into the final week of our four-week study in the book of James entitled Faith that works, pride tells us that we are in control of our own lives but humility recognizes the need for grace. The good news is that God gives grace to the humble. 

(James 4:11-17)

Faith That Works: Winning the War Within and Without (15-20)

Genuine faith is manifested beyond our confessions – it is seen in our deeds.  Today, we consider the marks of real faith from James’ teaching.

(James 4:1-10)

Faith That Works: The Devastation of Earthly Wisdom (14-20)

Consider this... If you rely on the kind of wisdom whose origins come from our world and culture, then devastation is sure to follow. 

(James 4:1-10)

Faith That Works: The Tale of Two Wisdoms (13-20)

How can you tell if something is wise or not? Well, James points to the qualities of God’s wisdom and the destruction that results from human plans – even if they sound smart. 

(James 3:13-18)

Faith That Works: Taming the Tongue (12-20)

It's so interesting what James has to say about the wildness of our speech... Dogs can be trained but tongues can’t! But even an untamed tongue will be righteous when the heart is pure. 

(James 3:7-12)

Faith That Works – The Power of the Tongue (11-20)

We're continuing our series this week Faith that works with Bible Teacher John Neufeld...

Ship rudders. Horses’ bit. Human tongues... all singular items but they all have a dramatic effect and powerful impact.

(James 3:1-6)
