Sermon Overview

Main Idea: Faith without works is dead.

  1. Faith without works is dead (vv. 14-19)

  2. Two examples (vv. 20-26)

Reflection

  1. Do the teachings of Paul and James on faith and works contradict each other? What arguments are each making?

  2. What works are you tempted to rely on for a right standing before God? What should we do if we are relying on works to save us?

  3. How would you encourage a Christian friend who is struggling with assurance after reading this passage?
