This is just from the radical team covering for Stacey Martin.

Did you know it's possible to have a kind of faith that is not saving faith?

The Bible says that even the demons believe and tremble before God,

and yet they don't have saving faith.

According to James 214-19, faith that doesn't produce works is dead.

True, saving faith rests in Christ's first salvation.

But it inevitably produces the faith of the good works, including helping those in need.

In this message, David Platt challenges us to consider whether our faith is genuine.

Genuine faith acts.

This is the radical with David Platt's podcast.

Here's David with the message titled, Faith Acts.

If you have a Bible and I hope you do,

let me invite you to open with me to James chapter 2.

James chapter 2, my original plan was to preach through chapter 2 verse 14 through 26 all in one week.

And plans have changed, as I have gotten into this text,

there is absolutely no way we could get through this whole passage in one week.

So we're going to take the next three weeks.

And we're only going to get to verse 19 today.

And even that is a bit of a stretch.

I mentioned last week, James messes you up, bad.

Like you cannot walk through this book and continue to live the same.

You can't just listen to it.
