What do you conclude about a person when what they claim to believe or value is contradicted by their behavior? For instance, a person claims they disdain alcoholic beverages because they have experienced the destructiveness of alcoholism, yet in their home they have a wine rack and a hard liquor cabinet, and they offer drinks to their guests? Or the man who claims to love his wife but flirts frequently and unashamedly with many women?  We’re walking with James, the 1/2 brother of Jesus these days, as we work through his little letter to the first century Jewish Christians across the Roman Empire. In his chapter 2, James deals with this issue of contradiction between belief or claims, and actions. James writes: “What good is it if a man claims to have faith [in God] but has no deeds? Can such faith save him?…faith by itself, if not accompanied by action, is dead.” (James 2:14,17) (Click here to see full text, images and links)Or  copy and go to this link: https://walkingwithjesus.ddawj-365.com/tuesday-22-june-2021-faith-reputation/     Today’s Scripture is James 2:14-26. Choose below to read or listen.​​Pastor Doug Anderson    262.441.8785  “Let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, with our eyes fixed on Jesus…” (Heb. 12:1,2)Have a comment or question about today’s chapter? I’m ready to hear from you, contact me here.
