1 | Why do we try to do something for God? | James 2:17 | bygraceyearesaved | 29887 | ||
Why are so many christians still trying to do something for God after they get saved? When Paul says in Ephesians 2:8 by grace ye are saved through faith ; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God. | ||||||
2 | Why do we try to do something for God? | James 2:17 | Makarios | 29888 | ||
Greetings bygraceyearesaved! I also believe that we are saved by grace alone! But once we are saved, we want to "do something for God" out of our love for Him, not because we feel that we have to be justified in any way. If we have faith, then good works for God will naturally follow, and be the fruit of our labors! So we do good works out of service and love for Him who so freely gave His life for us, so that we may have a chance for reconciliation with God. Blessings to you, Nolan |

5 | Man teach survial, do cause lackof faith | James 2:17 | Mictrell | 29969 | ||
That also is a question I also ask sometimes, I also know God can do it with or without us. I believe because man has taught us his ways of survial we lean to our own understanding instead of relying on Faith spoken in James 2:17. | ||||||
