Mundy's Quote for the Day
Often we hear Christian's brag about, "I'm saved; you get yours"!
We also hear and see Christian's being asked a question concerning the Bible, and they say, "I'm too busy to talk to you right now"!
We see persons without raiment, shoes, shelter over their heads, or food, and Christians say, "God has blessed me. Hallelujah"! They must be just lazy"; or "They must have sinned"; or "They must have done something wrong"; or They are not saved"!
What missed opportunities to evangelize for the Lord.
Reverend Lynwood F. Mundy
Faith Without Works Is Dead
14 What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him? 15 If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food,16 and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? 17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
18 But someone will say, “You have faith, and I have works.” Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works. 19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble! 20 But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? James 2:14-20
New King James Version (NKJV)
