PRESENTATION OUTLINE
Matthew 5:16 “Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.”
Philippians 2:14-15 “Do all things without grumbling or disputing; so that you will prove yourselves to be blameless and innocent, children of God above reproach in the midst of a crooked and perverse generation, among whom you appear as lights in the world,”

But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.”
JAMES BREAKS IT DOWN LIKE THIS:
While you can have works without faith. You cannot have faith without works.

James wastes no time with two very penetrating and important questions.
What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him?

A FAITH THAT IS ONLY VERBAL IS ALL ABOUT YOU AND IS NOT ENOUGH TO SAVE YOU FROM HELL.

John 2:23-25 “Now when He was in Jerusalem at the Passover, during the feast, many believed in His name, observing His signs which He was doing. But Jesus, on His part, was not entrusting Himself to them, for He knew all men, and because He did not need anyone to testify concerning man, for He Himself knew what was in man.”
