James, the brother of Jesus, confronts us with strong words designed to call us to live out a bold and active faith in Christ. In this sermon by Pastor Seth Winterhatler, we are confronted with the question, "What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works?" This passage is possibly one of the most memorable (and often debated) passages in all of the book of James. From this text Pastor Seth argues that God gives saving faith through Jesus Christ which justifies and sanctifies, transforming our convictions, character, and conduct. If faith is not displayed in the actions of your life, it is dead, not living, and therefore worthless. If faith is dead, what good is it? Is your faith living and active?
