Words From The Word

Why Believing in God Is Not Enough


Listen Later

Do you believe in God? So do the devils… and they tremble.

But are they saved?


In this eye-opening episode of Words From The Word, Pastor Roderick Webster takes us deep into James chapter 2 to uncover the sobering truth: Belief alone is not enough. Real faith is more than mental agreement—it shows up in your life.


📖 Here’s what you’ll learn in this powerful devotion:


✅ Why belief in God is not the same as saving faith

✅ What the Bible means by “faith without works is dead”

✅ How justification works—and why only God can justify

✅ The role of grace, faith, and evidence in salvation

✅ What sets living faith apart from lifeless religion

✅ Why the resurrection proves our justification


🎶 With a reflection on the classic hymn The Old Account Was Settled, Pastor Webster reminds us that when God justifies, it’s settled—for good.


⚠️ Don’t settle for a shallow belief. Real faith transforms you—and it always bears fruit.
