This second week on this passage we continued teaching that faith and works aren’t mutually exclusive. In fact, James tells us that faith apart from works is dead. As Christians works don’t get us eternal life, they don’t help us keep eternal life and they don’t prove we have eternal life. But they do make our faith profitable for that day when we stand before the Bema seat, they do help us have better fellowship with other Christians and they do help our faith mature and grow as God wants it to. As we have said already: We don’t work to be saved: We work because we are saved. Works don’t save us, but good works should follow true faith.
