About this listen
Zane Hodges explains James 2:14-26 by providing an overview of the entire Epistle of James. Zane explains the expression "save your souls" in James 1:21, and demonstrates that "save" in James is about saving your earthly lives not salvation from hell. Zane show the Greek word for "trial" and "temptation" have two meanings, (1) troubles and (2) temptation to do evil. Justification before God by faith versus justification before men by works is explained.
Dead faith is when we stop acting on what we believe. In that instance faith becomes like a dead body, a dead faith is unproductive. How do we keep our faith alive? By acting on what we believe. When people see us acting on what we believe, then we are justified by works before men.
Other passages: Matthew 7:24-27; Proverbs 11:19; Romans 4:2; Hebrews 11:31
