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[a] works, and I will show you my faith by my[b] 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?[c] 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? 22 Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? 23 And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, “Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness.”[d] And he was called the friend of God. 24 You see then that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only.

25 Likewise, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out another way?

26 For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

Matthew 7:21-23 New King James Version (NKJV)

I Never Knew You
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’

By God grace we are saved.

Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, "I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won't have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life."

So we are lying if we say we have fellowship with God but go on living in spiritual darkness; we are not practicing the truth.

Hello and welcome!  smile.gif

I know a lot of people uses this verses ... you ever ask if this refers to which kind of salvation (faith save him)?

Thank you and hello there.

By faith we are saved. The process is sanctification then justification.

1Corinthians6:10

Is there for a reason.

I m telling that Luke 13:9 and Matthew 7:19 Jesus forewarned so.

U can be a Christian. Everybody can say I know and I believe in Jesus. But not everybody follows Him and listen to Him. MATTHEW 31 specifically explained this for when judgement day comes. 

Not everybody who calls Lord Lord will be saved. But the one who does Fathers will.

There are lukewarm christian, devoted christian and those who tag by name but do not live out the life of Christ despite knowingly, persistently rejecting God and persistent in sin refusing His grace.

Hence it is of course, not right when evangelise, there is no proper catechism/Alpha course or faith formation course but rather a random prayer and boom ur now a believer kind of preaching and during some feast with food, party which is what is happening alot. Those are not rooted and need alot of guidance.

Agree.

+1Corinthians13 we all must learn to love.. if not we don’t know God too.
