Faith is certainly an essential element in the Christian Life.
The Bible says that without faith it is impossible to,
please God, and Hebrews chapter 11 and verse number 6, The
Inspired writer. And I as you know, believe it to
be the Apostle Paul said, but without faith, it is impossible
to please him. For he that cometh to God must
believe that he is, and that he is, a rewarder of them that
diligently. We seek him.
Also, we find a Bible definition for the word faith by the same
author in the 11th chapter of the book of Hebrews.
And in verse 1, where it says now, Faith is the substance of
things hoped for the evidence of things not seen.
You know, this is also very important and we find that the
Apostle Paul. Once again, the same author
talked about the fact that faith is imperative in the Christian
Life for it is faith that saves. Us in Ephesians, chapter 2 and
verse 8. Paul said, for by grace are you
saved through faith and not of yourselves, it is the gift of
God. We also find in God's word that
the Bible declares that a Christian is to walk or live by
faith. We are even told by the Apostle
Paul in the 14th chapter of the book of Romans and in verse 23,
that whatever we do that is separate and apart from faith is
sin. In very interesting.
What Paul was pointing out in the fourteenth chapter of the
book of Romans, it's a chapter that we often refer to as the
things in life that are out there that we are allowed to do,
Liberty wise, that are not infringing upon law.
And there are things that we can do along that line that the
Bible does not discuss or declare and it would not tell
us. That a particular thing is
wrong, then when we look at that particular thing that we might
Do we find that the it does not infringe upon law, and
therefore, it is not sin but very interesting though.
Paul said that if your conscience is against it or that
particular thing is going to go against your conscience because
you feel it's wrong. Even though the Bible does not
declare it's wrong, it is a sin to you.
And so anything that is apart from faith is sin, but you no,
an understanding faith. It is important to realize that
there are three different kinds of faith that James describes in
the second chapter of his letter there.
And the only one kind of Faith though, is good.
Only one kind of faith is truly saving faith in the passage
that's before us in James chapter 2.
And in verses 14 through 26, we find James is discussing the
different kinds of Faith with Emphasis upon the one that will
work toward the saving of the Soul.
You know, the Bible already said and we already quoted that the
Apostle Paul by divine. Inspiration says that without
faith, it is impossible to please him.
We know that he gave a Bible definition and Hebrews chapter
11 and verse 1. So you and I know and he also
mentioned in Ephesians 2 and 8 that we are saved by this Faith.
So, the question comes up, what What faith is going to be
acceptable. In the eyes of God, James deals
with three kinds in James 2 so we need to ask ourselves the
question. What are the three and which one
is going to help me go to heaven?
One day. That's the only one that I'm
concerned about. But let's notice a couple of
others that he dealt with. First of all, he said there is a
dead Faith. A dead faith.
Yes, it is impossible to have a type of Faith but have it be of
no benefit to you at all. And that is a dead one.
A dead faith is one who substitutes words for Deeds,
very important. You know, I couldn't come up
with a greater example of this than James did himself in verse
15. Notice what he says If a brother
or sister be naked and destitute of daily food and one of you say
unto them depart in peace, be warmed and filled
notwithstanding. Ye give them not those things
which are needful to the body. What does it profit?
This is a person that is sympathizing with his speech but
doing nothing with his actions to help the need.
It be like this if my brother Terry was starving and he came
Um to me destitute of daily food and I say go in peace brother be
ye warmed and filled, I'm feeling for you, go ahead and be
warmed and filled depart from this place right now and so on,
what have I done for him? I've done absolutely nothing now
that might seem like an extreme example but that's what James is
saying. An example is of a man, And who
has a dead Faith. This is a person that has some
knowledge though. They have some knowledge about
what the Bible teaches on the subject of Salvation.
This is a person that has some knowledge regarding the specific
things that are outlined regarding faith in God's word.
So we're not talking about a person that is ignorant.
We are talking about a person that has been educated in God's
word at least to the extent regarding God his son, Jesus
Christ, the Lord's church, and how we must live.
This is a person that has an understanding of those things.
Let me just give you one more example before we press on an
example that Jesus dealt with. You remember in one of his
Parables, Jesus dealt with the parable of the two sons and what
he says to the first one is he says going in my opinion, heard
and labor there? The first son says, no probably
says well. He said the first one says, I'm
not going. I'm not going to go in your
Vineyard, but the Bible says later, he repented.
And then he went, but the second son immediately said no problem.
I'll go sure you can count on me.
You ever known somebody like that, man?
Their long long, telling you that they're going to be there?
They're long on saying they're going to be right there with
you, but when it comes down to it, they are nowhere to be
found. Could it be that even among
God's people? We have folks like that?
Well, here it is. The second son Jesus said, which
one did the father's will what else could they answer?
But well, the first he repented and then he went to see his
actions and his deeds and his obedience was what was in
question and that was the only thing that the Father, would
deem acceptable, here's my point.
What Jesus was pointing out is the fact that we live in a
generation of sailors and not doers, could it be though that
even among God's people, we are Sayers but not doers one that
has a dead. Faith is one who number one
knows the correct vocabulary for prayer and sound Doctrine.
This is a person that perhaps can even quote the right verses
of scripture that are found in God's word but there Talk does
not measure up with their talk, so what it is, it's a man who
substitutes words for works but secondly, this is one who has
only an intellectual faith in one's mind, he or she knows the
doctrine of salvation, but they have never submitted themselves
to God and trusted in Jesus Christ for their salvation.
They know all the right words to say, Say, but they don't back up
their words with their obedient works.
The question is before us, can this Faith save a man?
The answer is quite simply. No, it cannot.
It is impossible for this one to have a saving Faith because
three times. Once in verse 17 verse 20 and
verse 26, James declares and describes that faith without
works is dead. So, We are not working.
If we are not doing anything, if we are not going Beyond
intellectual faith, we have a dead faith.
And that faith cannot save more on that.
As one man said, also any Declaration of faith that does
not result in a changed life. And good works, is a false
declaration or a dead faith. Other said that dead.
Faith is a counterfeit Faith now.
What's So Scary? About a counterfeit dead Faith?
Unfortunately it lows a person into a false confidence of
eternal life, it loans. The person to sleep spiritually
as it were and that he is lowing himself and he is misguided.
And he has confidence in that, which is not real false sense of
Security, and a false confidence in Eternal salvation.
Well, all of this being said, we need to ask ourselves the
question. Do we have a dead faith?
If we examine these things thus far, do the things that we have
said, do they compare to our life and match up?
Well, let's answer it this way. We have a dead faith.
If Our walk does not measure up to our talk and our works do not
measure up to our words, but you know, there's another type of
faith that James describes believe it or not.
And it's the faith that the Devils have would just call it
demonic faith today. Demonic Faith.
The faith of the devil's. You know, what's very
interesting about this is we might look at the first one and
say, well, I'm not guilty of a dead Faith, but then, when we
compare it to demonic Faith, or the, the faith that the devil's
possessed, according to James, 22, be careful because we might
fall under that category. Can you imagine if all of a
sudden one day coming to Idea or coming to the knowledge that we
have, the same faith that the devil's had.
Let me ask you this. I would just imagine that I can
go into the entire world and I can ask people to question.
Do you believe that Satan and the angels of heaven that were
cast out of Heaven down in the pits or chains of Darkness?
Awaiting the resurrection to be cast into the place that was
prepared for them. Incidentally, that's gehenna.
Hell. And that's the place that we
will go. Go.
If we don't have the faith, that the Bible teaches we must have
therefore understanding that we can go out and ask anyone in the
world not even amongst those religious folks in than end of
the nominations all around us. And ask the question.
Do you believe that Satan is going to go to heaven?
I would imagine everyone would say, we're surely not.
Surely not. We need to be careful.
We don't possess the same type of Faith.
Beginning in verse 18, James says, yeah, man may say thou
Hast faith and I have Works. Show me, thy faith without thy
works and I will show you my faith by my works now, believe
is that there is one God thou doest.
Well, the devil's also believe and tremble.
Notice, this particular faith is one step above a dead Faith.
Notice there was Other man in a conversion story that failed in
God's word and that is Governor Felix.
You remember that? Governor Felix did the same
thing that the devil's do. What are the devil's?
Do they believe and they tremble.
What did Felix do with the Bible says that the Apostle Paul was
preaching to him and what exactly word for word?
We don't know, just exactly what he said.
All we know is that Paul reason with him of righteousness,
Temperance and judgment to come. now, I'll tell you this,
whatever he said, It caused him to tremble.
It caused his emotions to be involved.
It wasn't just intellectual Faith.
Oh, no. He believed that to the only way
that he would be moved to tremble.
Was that he believed in electorally to the things that
Paul had said? If he had not he would have cast
that aside as not important. I don't believe it.
I don't agree with it and so long and so he had an
intellectual knowledge or intellectual Faith.
He had also emotional faith Cause it cars came to be moved
to tremble. The question is, did it do him
any good? Now, we know that James is
declaring that it didn't do the devil's.
Any good? What about Felix?
What did he say? Was it enough?
Absolutely not. The Bible says that he trembled
and he said these horrible words, go thy way for now.
And when I have a more convenient season, I will call
for thee. When we look at his life, we
don't find one passage of scripture.
After that time, when this man feel makes had another
opportunity to obey the gospel and did it.
I would just imagine it is my opinion that if this man would
have repented and this man would have come and been converted
later on. I would just imagine that it
would be found in divine inspiration for our knowledge
and for us to see that, just my opinion.
Now let's talk about something that it's not my opinion.
It is the fact of Felix in his case.
What did he do? He believed intellectually.
He trembled showing that he believed and he had Faith
emotionally, but he said go by way.
And he rejected the most important thing and that's
obedience to the gospel, call, notice a couple more things
about these demons, you know, perhaps to shock and he
complacent reader. James reminds us that even the
demons tremble They have a kind of Faith.
Yes, indeed, those that are demons believe.
In God, we're not talking about an atheist or an agnostic, we're
talking about people that know or beings that know that there
is a God in heaven. But, let's notice what else.
The demons know. I thought this was rather.
Interesting, hopefully, you will too, but first of all, you know,
that the demons believe in the deity of Christ.
Oh, that's a wonderful thing. Believe isn't it?
We want to believe in the deity of Jesus Christ.
Hear the words that are found in Mark the third chapter beginning
in verse 11, where it says and unclean spirits.
When they saw him fell down before him and cried saying,
Thou Art the Son of God and straitly, charged them that they
should not make him known. Yes, they believe in the deity
of Jesus Christ. Secondly, they believed in the
existence of A place of condemnation, Luke chapter 8 and
verse number 31, but not only that.
They also believed that Jesus Christ will be the judge in that
last and final day. Can you imagine that?
These are lost beings that believe in the existence of God,
the deity of Christ, a place of condemnation.
And that Jesus Christ will be the great magistrate that day.
That we'll all be before that Throne, when Jesus passes formal
sit-ins on the wicked and rewards.
Those that have done the things that are found in God's word.
Listen, folks, the devil's believe that too.
How do I know? That look at a very interesting
passage of scripture found in Matthew chapter, 8 and verses 28
and 29. And when he was come to the
other side into the country of the gurgles scenes, there met
him, two possessed with Devils coming out of the tombs
exceeding Fierce so that no man might pass by thy way.
And behold they cried out saying what have we to do with thee?
Listen Jesus, thou Son of God, here it comes.
And thou come Come hither to torment us before the time.
Yeah, they know that Jesus is going to take care of them and
cast them from Shane's or pits of Darkness into the into the
Lake of Fire one day. They knew that they know it
today also. But they said, what are you
doing? Jesus, thou Son of God.
Recognizing God and the deity of Christ.
Why are you come here? Here now to torment us before it
is time. Yeah, they believe that they
know that Jesus will be the judge.
On that day. What kind of faith of the demons
have? Well, let's look back.
We saw that, a dead faith is one who has touched by his
intellect, only the death, are the, Demonic Faith.
Or those that had this kind of Faith were those?
That had an intellectual and an emotional Faith, only.
And the question, can this Faith save us?
Well, certainly, not because a person can be enlightened in his
own mind, and a person can even be Stirred in his own heart and
still be lost in a devil's hell for all eternity.
True saving Faith. Involves something that is more
something that can be seen and recognized.
That is so important because the world does not believe that the
religious World, especially does not believe that there needs to
be something that people can see regarding your faith.
But that is the case, though, a person that is going to have the
saving faith of the Bible. To have something that can be
seen by others and recognized by others as different, and that,
ladies and gentlemen, is a changed life.
If your faith does not change your life, then you don't have
the faith that can save. You going back to verse 18.
Notice what James says, he says, yeah, man may say thou Hast
faith and I have Works. Show me, thy faith without thy
works. And I I'll show thee my faith by
my Works. A Christian involves are being a
Christian involves, two things trusting and coming to in
obedience to the gospel, coming to Jesus, but secondly, it
involves living for Jesus. We must also understand that in
becoming a Christian. We understand that we receive
something that the world does not have.
When we talk about life and death, and we're not talking
about physical life and death, We are talking about spiritual
life and death. Everyone that is not a Christian
is at that time. Spiritually dead.
They have to receive what they have to receive life.
The Bible says in Romans chapter 6, beginning in verse 3, no, he
not. There's so many of us as were
baptized into Jesus. Christ were baptized into his
death. Therefore we are buried with him
by baptism into death that like as Christ was raised up from the
dead by the glory of the father. Even so we We also should walk
in newness of life. That's what we get when we come
to Christ. You know, the religious world
would say that you can have that and that'll save you one time
and you have nothing else to do. That's not what James teaches
here. Because once you receive this,
your life has to reveal this, the things that you do have to
reveal the life that you've been given as a Christian.
Well, do we have the kind of faith that we talked about today
as demonic? Faith.
Well, we do, if we believe the right things and feel the right,
things only, we also do if our Seer, if our service to God does
not go beyond intellectually adhering to the right doctrines.
And secondly, if it does not go beyond emotional experiences.
While we attend Services, it must go farther and beyond that
in summary, thus far, James introduced.
Us to these two kinds of faith that can never save dead faith
and demonic Faith. But there's another one though.
And this will just called Dynamic faith.
This is the kind of faith that
will save your soul without this kind.
It is not good enough because it is lacking.
We're so grateful that James gives us in the next section of
scriptures and verses 20 through 26.
He describes what we have to do to have that beginning in verse
20 James says but wilt thou know o vain man that faith without
works is dead was not Abraham Our Father Justified.
I'd by works. When he had offered Isaac, his
son upon the altar, seest thou how Faith wrought with this
works. And by faith was Faith made
perfect by works. Was Faith made perfect, and the
scripture was fulfilled, which saith Abraham believed God, and
it was imputed unto him for righteousness, and he was called
the friend of God. Ye see, then how that by works.
A man is Justified and not by faith.
Only notice the examples and I think this is very interesting.
I'll spend just a few minutes on this and just a moment, but
notice he gives an example of those that have a dynamic
working saving Faith. He says, Abraham and Rahab.
I'll tell you. Can you imagine two people that
are any more different than Abraham and Rahab more on that
in a minute. So the question is, what kind of
faith is Make Faith. First of all, we know from other
passages of scripture that such faith is based on the word of
God in Romans chapter 10 and verse 17, the Bible says, so
then Faith cometh by hearing and hearing by the word of God.
Dynamic faith is different from dead and demonic Faith because
this is the one that involves the whole man dead.
Faith touches only the intellect demonic faith is the intellect
And the emotions, but the dynamic is the intellect
emotions and the most important part of all the will, it's got
to affect that. you know, sometimes folks think that
there's a whole lot of gray in this world, I think there's a
lot of black and white, I really do especially when it comes to
obedience to God's work. I think sometimes people need to
realize that our decisions are plotting out the course and
where we're going to spend eternity.
I believe that with all my heart because it doesn't matter what
your circumstances have been in days gone by that doesn't
matter. So, it causes Us in the flesh to
be sympathetic and so on. But at the end of the day, when
we stand before our maker, when Jesus is on that judgment bar,
It's not going to matter the circumstances in our life.
What's going to matter is the choices that we made?
What's going to matter is this we've been given the free will
to obey or disobey and what's going to be before us is, did we
do it? Or did we not?
That's a simple as that folks. That's what James says.
Did we do it? Or did we not it leads us to
action? It's not intellectual
contemplation. It is not simple emotionalism,
but it is that which leads to obedience in doing good works
now, very briefly. Let's look at the two examples
that James gives and as I mentioned, just a moment ago,
you really cannot go into the pages of divine inspiration and
find two people that Clash together as a character of Faith
or who has been listed in the eleventh chapter in the Hall of
Fame of Faith recorded, their of all of those Heroes that stand
as an example to you. And I that have gone by in days
gone by you will not find two people that are anymore
different or opposite than Abraham and Rahab.
And yet James pictures them together with a certain
likeness. This.
Notice Abraham as we compare them, Abraham was the father of
the Jews. Rahab was a gentile.
Abraham was a godly man, but Rahab was a harlot.
Abraham was the friend of God, Rahab belonged to the enemies of
God. What did they have in common?
Then they had the saving Faith demonstrated by their obedient.
X Abraham demonstrated, this Faith James says, when he
offered Isaac upon the Altar and I'll just say this, we know the
story, I'll not go into, great detail on either one of the
stories, regarding their faith, a briefly brushed by them and
I'll just say this. Can you imagine what it would
have been like to be Abraham? What if God said to you, take
thy son, thine only son, Isaac, whom thou lovest, and you offer
him, you take him to a place that I will tell thee and the
offering as a sacrifice unto me, I would just imagine that if a
person by his faith is going to be a working obedient Faith or
is going to actually do what God says.
Chances are he's going to at least question God and ask God
Why is that? No, the Bible says he rose up
early. I'm going to tell you something.
He stood over his boy that day. I can't fathom such a horrible
thing. And he was going to take his
life. How much did a been to hear in
the ears of Abraham, the words of the Sun?
It says, behold the wood in the fire.
So where's the letter? The faith of Abraham was
described in his response, he says my son God shall provide a
ladder. That's Faith.
That's Dynamic to working. Obedient faith.
What about rehab? This is a harlot.
You remember, very briefly when Joshua had sent out those
Messengers to spy the land, even Jericho.
He wanted some information that was inside those, that walled
City, he wanted to find out about perhaps the number of
inhabitants that were there. I don't know, maybe the size of
their army, or the state of their preparation and
preparedness, because he wanted to know that because he was
going to go in and destroy it. Very interesting though, these
two Messengers find a very unlikely Ally.
In a harlot named Rahab, that's what he uses uses Rahab as an
example, these men are hidden and these men had tried.
I would just imagine to remain undetected but in all of their
attempts, they failed and we're gets back to the king that were
over at rahab's house those two spies, those two Messengers are
there. What's the king?
Do he sends out soldiers? He set him straight to rahab's
house. I would just imagine that Rahab
all the strength Must have been for her to muster up within
herself to stand there and have these soldiers pressing upon her
and coming out her with threats and whatever it was that they
said. And all of a sudden she has an
opportunity now to be looked on not down.
Like she's always been looked upon but now she could actually
look, be looked upon in the eyes of the king the soldiers and all
of those fellow people that lived in that City in a positive
and wonderful way. By doing her patriotic duty, but
she doesn't, she doesn't she strong.
She says, well, when it was dark, they left, I don't know
where they went. Then she says go quick hurry up
that you might overtake them. Here's the question.
Why did she do it? Well, she answers just exactly
why she did it when she got back to the roof, where the
messengers were, and I want you to hear what she said to them.
This is why What you got to that roof?
She said, I know the Lord hath. Given you, this land passed
10th, it's already done. I know that and your terror is
Fallen upon us and that all the inhabitants of the land faint
because of you, what we know the story, she lets them down by a
cord through the window out, the window and tells them to go into
the mountains and for three days hide their into the pursuers be
returned, we know that. At and then she says as I've
shown you this kindness show also under me, kindness as well,
and spare me and my house. Well, this is what they said,
they said that's a deal. Basically, our life for yours.
Only upon the condition that you don't tell anybody and secondly
upon the condition, you take that, that court of scarlet
thread and you bind it in the window.
And whoever is in the house behind that Scarlet line when
Israel comes Things will be spared.
She was spared because of her Dynamic.
Working obedient. Faith.
It's so important. In conclusion today that each
professing Christian sit down and examine his or her life and
his or her heart. We need to make sure that we all
possess the true saving faith that James describes in this
chapter. But I think it's also important
that we must understand that, sometimes being honest with
ourself is the most difficult challenge of all.
But remember that Satan is The Great Deceiver.
And one of his devices is imitation.
If he can convince us that counterfeit faith is true Faith,
then he's got that person in his power.
Well. Here are some questions that we
can ask ourselves very briefly as we examine our faith today.
Was there a time when I honestly realized that?
I was a sinner and admitted this to myself and to God was there a
time when my heart stirred me to flee from the Wrath to come?
Have I ever been seriously worked up over my sins?
Do I truly understand? The gospel that Jesus Christ,
died for my sins and then rose again.
Do I understand and confess that I will, I cannot save myself.
Did I sincerely? Repent of my sins?
Making the decision to turn from them?
And listen, do I now as a result hates sin and fear God, or do, I
seek really love sin and wish to enjoy it from time to time?
Have I trusted Jesus Christ and him alone for my salvation by
responding to the commands that he has given me.
Have I confess my name or my faith in Jesus Christ?
And then been baptized for the remission of my sins and do the
things that Jesus and his Apostles commanded has.
There been a change in my life? Do I maintain?
Good works for our. My good works occasional and
week. Do I seek to Grow in the things
of the Lord. Can others tell that I have been
with Jesus. Do I have a desire to share
Christ with others or am I ashamed?
Do I enjoy the fellowship of God's people?
Or would I rather hang out with the world?
Is worship a delight to me? Or is it just a burden?
And something? I would rather not do.
Am I ready for the Lord's return?
Am I eagerly waiting for it? Or will I be ashamed when he
Comes for me. you know, far too many people even among God's
people especially They've quit serving God because of
circumstances, you know, it's sad to me is when somebody
leaves the church. And they say we talk to him
well, brother so-and-so really hurt my feelings.
Or sometimes people say, well, you know, I'm just angry right
now, I'm just angry. I'm discouraged.
Circumstances in my life have caused me to be.
So sometimes folks say I just can't do more and I can't have a
dynamic working Faith, because I just don't have the ability that
others have. Some say, you know, I'd like to
do more. I'm just too tired.
I don't feel good. Let me just leave you with a
little story. It's a true story and maybe, you
know it, perhaps you do. I think the movie was made after
this man's life quite recently. What is the meaning, Bill
Porter? I want you to think about this
when you think you're too tired. Bill Porter was born with
Cerebral. Palsy now we know what all that
entails. He could barely walk, he could
barely speak. He went from job to job trying
to find someone that would employ him.
But Social Services said, no, you will never be fit to work
any day of your life. You will be on government
assistance, all the days of your life.
But you know, this fellow didn't let that happen.
He didn't let that occur where he would take government
assistance, you know what he did, he kept going out until
finally. Somebody hired him.
And finally, that company was the Watkins company a sales
company and they hired him as a Salesman.
Now that sounds like a Triumph, doesn't it?
It sounds like he's finally got his chance, doesn't it?
Here are the conditions though his employment.
Anybody that's ever sold anything.
You'll know exactly what I'm saying.
Right here, you got to take the territory that nobody wants.
And no celery. No, training, salarino,
training, bonus. Oh no, you're on your own in
that territory. Door-to-door with yourself and
nope and no salary just commission's only.
I understand that this crippled man.
Walk 10 miles every day. He knocked on door after door
after door. when he got an order, he had to ask the
customer to fill out the order form because he's right-handed
and work. He could barely speak things
that you and I take for granted. He struggled with what happened
to this man? How could a man like that ever
succeed? You know what happened to him?
He became the number one salesman in the country.
That's amazing to me. You know why?
That's the best part? Reason why he never had sidered
himself, nor branded himself as one that had a handicap.
He never branded himself as one who had these challenges around
him, he never gave himself a disability.
You know, what's even better when he became extremely
successful. He never considered himself to
be special, either. You know what he did is what he
I hear he got up every day. And he went to work.
He was interviewed one time. You know what he said?
He said people ask him. How could you do it?
What drove yet? He said, oh nothing special.
I had a job to do and I had to do it with her.
I felt like it or whether I did it.
Could it be that the Christian today can learn from that
attitude? I got a job to do.
I have a job to do and living my life with my Dynamic, working
faith. And I don't care how I feel
about it. I don't care if I feel sick
today, I don't care. If I'm tired.
I'm going to get up and do it and I might suffer in this life.
Physically, I might have elements and problems.
I'm going to tell you something. You get to heaven.
You get all the rest. You'll ever need.
Well it all the rest. That's what heavens for.
Let's not rest. Now let's work now.
