Subject: shew thee my faith by my works

Bible Note:
teregram123, I hear what you're saying. I have done a major study on the parable of the wheat and the tares. I've broke it all down into the original language (greek). Actually it was on Matthew 13, which has many parables. On Microsoft word, I am on page 90, and I am still not down with the chapter. Oh, what an enlightenment.

Faith and works go hand in hand. One has to have faith for as to do the works. Faith in whom you trust.

In Matt.7:20, the word fruit is translated as
NT:2590

karpos (kar-pos); probably from the base of NT:726; fruit (as plucked), literally or figuratively:

KJV - fruit.

NT:726

harpazo (har-pad-zo); from a derivative of NT:138; to sieze (in various applications):

KJV - catch (away, up), pluck, pull, take (by force

NT:138 haireomai (hahee-reh-om-ahee); probably akin to NT:142; to take for oneself, i.e. to prefer:

KJV - choose. Some of the forms are borrowed from a cognate hellomai (hel-lom-ahee); which is otherwise obsolete.

NT:142

airo (ah-ee-ro); a primary root; to lift up; by implication, to take up or away; figuratively, to raise (the voice), keep in suspense (the mind), specially, to sail away (i.e. weigh anchor); by Hebraism [compare OT:5375] to expiate sin:

KJV - away with, bear (up), carry, lift up, loose, make to doubt, put away, remove, take (away, up).

OT:5375

nasa (naw-saw); or nacah (Ps 4:6 [OT:7]) (naw-saw'); a primitive root; to lift, in a great variety of applications, literal and figurative, absol. and rel. (as follows):

KJV - accept, advance, arise, (able to, [armor], suffer to) bear (-er, up), bring (forth), burn, carry (away), cast, contain, desire, ease, exact, exalt (self), extol, fetch, forgive, furnish, further, give, go on, help, high, hold up, honorable (man), lade, lay, lift (self) up, lofty, marry, magnify, needs, obtain, pardon, raise (up), receive, regard, respect, set (up), spare, stir up, swear, take (away, up), utterly, wear, yield.

OT:7

abad (Aramaic) (ab-ad); corresponding to OT:6:

KJV - destroy, perish.

OT:6

abad (aw-bad);

a primitive root; properly, to wander away, i.e. lose oneself; by implication to perish (causative, destroy):

KJV - break, destroy (-uction), not escape, fail, lose, (cause to, make) perish, spend, and surely, take, be undone, utterly, be void of, have no way to flee.

Very interesting, Huh?

I know this is a deep subject. But as regarding faith and works. The translation for faith in these verses is-

James 2:20

20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?
KJV

James 2:26-3:1

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

NT:4102

pistis (pis'-tis); from NT:3982; persuasion, i.e. credence; moral conviction (of religious truth, or the truthfulness of God or a religious teacher), especially reliance upon Christ for salvation; abstractly, constancy in such profession; by extension, the system of religious (Gospel) truth itself:

KJV - assurance, belief, believe, faith, fidelity.

NT:3982

peitho (pi'-tho); a primary verb; to convince (by argument, true or false); by analogy, to pacify or conciliate (by other fair means); reflexively or passively, to assent (to evidence or authority), to rely (by inward certainty):

KJV - agree, assure, believe, have confidence, be (wax) conflent, make friend, obey, persuade, trust, yield.

I really liked you question, and I apologize for not being able at this time to get into Revelations. I have to take my son to school. I am not finished, and I have a tenacy to be long winded. Talk to me, I want to discuss this more. Great subject
