Faith Alone

The faith of James – not me, but the one who wrote part of the New Testament – was a faith of praxis. It was a faith of action. It was a faith of doing what Jesus said, changing everything in the ways Jesus extolled. Because Jesus’ message was a message of action. It was a description of the right way to live. Right then. And right now.

Faith without works is dead. Because if someone says you have to jump, and you don't jump, you don't believe him.
