[Manna - October 13]
I will show thee my faith by my works. James 2:18
WHILE the Lord's people of the present age are not
to be judged by their works but by their faith, nevertheless,
works will be required.
By our works we
demonstrate our faith, and, thank God, imperfect
works can demonstrate to Him the loyalty of our intentions,
our wills....If our works demonstrate to
the Lord the sincerity of our faith, that faith will be
acceptable to Him and we will be counted perfect and
be granted a share in the Kingdom, and all the great
and precious things which the Lord has in reservation
for those who love Him—not merely in word but also
in deed—for those who strive by the deeds of life
to show forth, to demonstrate, their love. Z.'04-45 R3318:1
