Title of message: Live One

(James 2:14) \\u201cWhat good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds?\\u201d Can such faith save him?

(James 2:15-17) \\u201cSuppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to him, "Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed," but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.\\u201d

(James 2:18) \\u201cBut someone will say, "You have faith; I have deeds." Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.\\u201d

(Ephesians 4:12-16) \\u201c\\u2026so that the body of Christ may be built up until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of the Son of God and become mature, attaining to the whole measure of the fullness of Christ.\\xa0 Then we will no longer be infants, tossed back and forth by the waves, and blown here and there by every wind of teaching and by the cunning and craftiness of men in their deceitful scheming. Instead, speaking the truth in love, we will in all things grow up into him who is the Head, that is, Christ. From him the whole body, joined and held together by every supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.\\u201d
