Faith in action

James 2:25-26 (Message translation)
"The same with Rahab, The Jericho harlot. Wasn't her action in hiding God's spies and helping them escape-
that seamless unity of believing and doing- what counted with God?
The very moment you separate body and spirit, you end up with a corpse.
Separate faith and works and you get the same thing: a corpse.

Day 43

Sunday....
Today's sermon was about some of the things that can distract us from Christ. Distracted from the gospel of GRACE through Him.
Works and religiosity included. It's a distraction from the gospel to become more wrapped up in our religion than in the Love of Christ. The condition of our soul is not based on what we do, or how we do it.

It's about Him.

It's about love.

It's about mercy and grace and forgiveness that we don't deserve.

Colossians 1:13-14
For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins.

It's about sharing all of the above.
