Got faith? How about demonstrated faith in action? Learn how faith in Jesus is displayed by your actions and deeds, and why it’s important. Plus, two truths about works and faith.

Faith in Christ brings salvation. Yay! But saying you have faith will not prove, demonstrate, or indicate that you have faith--only that you have stated it. Our actions and deeds come from faith in Jesus. The works we display are proof of faith in Jesus. Without such works, our declaration of faith is useless or dead. This message is a good first step to find a way to put your faith into action and allow your faith to be seen.

How’s your perspective? Is it influenced by God or something else? This message gives important insight about what it means to love God, love people, and have faith in Christ.

As believers, we must view things from God’s perspective and not according to the world’s ideas, or by physical appearance or status. In this message, we will learn why our words and actions must display faith and harmony with the spiritual truth of the gospel. Jesus looked down on no one. Likewise, we must view people through God’s eyes rather than judge them by our personal prejudices or by their outward situation. We are all sinners saved by grace through faith. Allow the mercy of God to triumph in your heart and guide you in how you live.

Are you a doer? This message challenges us to avoid deception and invites us to look intently into the word of God and allow it to change us. You will be blessed as you apply the word of God and live according to what the word teaches.

Have you been deceived and don’t even know it? Today’s study warns us from being deceived or deceiving ourselves. Listening to the word is one thing but doing or acting upon the word of God is what is most important.

We need to allow the word of God to take root and grow in our hearts. As the word of God abides in our hearts, we need to read and consciously abide in the word of God and allow the Holy Spirit access to every corner of our hearts and lives.

Did you know that trials have a purpose? In this message, we learn that while trials and temptations are not sin, they can lead to sin if we don’t stand firm in faith.

We should understand that when temptations and trials do come, we must stand firm in faith and persevere. As we do, we will become mature and lack nothing. The Lord by his Holy Spirit will give us what we need to stand firm in faith.
