James teaches that one is justified “by works and not by faith alone” (James 2:24). Does this contract Paul who proclaims a justification by faith apart from works of the law? What exactly is the role of works in salvation in general and justification in particular?
Mark Jones joins me on What in the Word? to discuss.

How can a sinner be made right with a holy God?
In this episode of Logos Live, I sat down with Stephen Westerholm to talk about Paul’s doctrine of justification. We discuss the nature of justification, how Paul establishes and develops the doctrine, and contemporary debates, including questions raised by the New Perspective on Paul.

The Problem With Partiality (James 2:1-13)

See all sermons from this series on James.
The following is an adult Sunday School lesson based out of James 2:1-13 that I taught at my church, Lake Drive Baptist Church, in Milwaukee, WI on July 22th, 2012.
This was a topical sermon I preached at Lake Drive Baptist Church, Milwaukee, WI in the spring of 2011 on the issue of what true saving faith is. Although more could certainly be said about the nature of true saving faith, in this sermon I addressed three vital characteristics of faith that saves: drastic, visible, and persevering.
