Saved By Works For Works

Mar 22, 2015    Pastor Josh McPherson    James 2:14-26

The unapologetic teaching of Scripture is that salvation must be earned. In other words, we can only be saved by works. But how does that mesh with with being saved by grace? Which is it, grace or works? In this powerful passage, James boldly confronts those in the church who's faith is faulty and who have become experts at giving lip service to Jesus but have no lifestyle to match it. And he raises the most pressing question...how important are our works in relationship to our salvation?
