Can faith with no works save you? This question has been around for a long time. Works and faith have often been at the center of debate in the church. What exactly is necessary for salvation? It is a fundamental issue and one that James covers in detail. Just as words without action do not help people, neither does a professed faith in God mean that someone is truly saved. Your faith in the Lord is demonstrated by how you live, how you pray. Ask God to reveal areas of life in which you have been hesitant to “step out” in faith.
