Bible Readgs
1 John 3: 16-24
This is how we know what love is: Jesus Christ laid down
his life for us. And we ought to lay down our lives for our
brothers and sisters.
If anyone has material possessions and sees a brother
or sister in need but has no pity on them, how can the
love of God be in that person?
Dear children, let us not love with words or speech
but with actions and in truth.

This is how we know that we belong to the truth and
how we set our hearts at rest in his presence: If our
hearts condemn us, we know that God is greater than
our hearts, and he knows everything.
Dear friends, if our hearts do not condemn us, we have
confidence before God and receive from him anything
we ask, because we keep his commands and do what
pleases him. And this is his command: to believe in the
name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and to love one another
as he commanded us.
The one who keeps God’s commands lives in him, and
he in them. And this is how we know that he lives in us:
We know it by the Spirit he gave us.
James 2: 14-26
Faith and Deeds
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.
You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith
without deeds is useless? Was not our father Abraham
considered righteous for what he did when he offered
his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his
actions were working together, and his faith was made
complete by what he did.
And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham
believed God, and it was credited to him as
righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend. You see
that a person is considered righteous by what they do
and not by faith alone.
In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute
considered righteous for what she did when she gave
lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different
direction? As the body without the spirit is dead,
so faith without deeds is dead.
