The Balance Between Faith & Works

This topic is about “The Balance Between Faith and Works.” When we believe, we are qualified to receive anything and everything God’s Word guarantee us. Mental ascent alone or just mentally believing in or on Jesus Christ and His Word does not amount to salvation within itself. Rather, our faith becomes the propelling force, a power that compels us and that causes us to act on what we believe (John 1:11-13). Our works is a visible expression of what we say we believe!

Both Satan and demons believe (James 2:19), but their belief does not save them. It takes more than this type of believing to be saved, yet we can never be saved without believing. Faith is the first step, the beginning ingredient, and a necessary part of salvation. Every step toward God must be prefaced by faith.
