Prayer: John Chrystostom
Belief
and faith are proved by works, not by simply saying that one believes, but by
real actions, which are kept up, and by a heart burning with love.
Yes, we need to have both. Paul says that faith without works is dead. I am drawn to the phrase "contemplatives in action".
ReplyDeleteThat's right. It is one of the major points of James. Without works, our faith is not expressed.
