Friday - 6/15 - Read James 2:1-13
We are forgiven and freed from the condemnation and dominion of sin. How much do you appreciate this gift from God?
Paul states in Gal. 5:13, "You, my brothers, were called to be free. But do not use your freedom to indulge the sinful nature; rather serve one another in love."
How does the sinful nature approach differences that can lead to playing favorites?
When the sinful nature reacts first, will we be willing to "serve one another in love?"
Instead of "serving one another" who will we be willing to serve? Hint: you see this person every morning when you look in the mirror.
Why does James tie showing mercy to others, even those different than us, with our salvation?
Does this mean we are saved by our good works? see, Ephesians 2:8,9
What does showing mercy tell us about the true condition of our hearts?
Why is this so vital?
Read Luke 15:11-24 for next Sunday
