“Faith Exposed Through Life” 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12

TRANSCRIPT

Date: November 12, 2025 Author: Wayne J. Edwards

In James 2:14-19, the half-brother of the Lord Jesus wrote: “What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead. But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.” Tonight at 6:00 PM, we will continue our sermons on “ Paul’s Passionate Prayers.” In tonight’s study, we will look at 2 Thessalonians 1:1-12, under the heading of: “Faith Exposed through Life.” Please forward this study guide to those you think might be interested.
