James (Page 2)
Faith is demonstrated by our response to trials
Message taken from James 1:2-12. What are Trials? Trials: adversity, affliction or trouble: sent or allowed by God that serve to test or prove one’s character, faith and holiness. There are two facts about Trials: 1. They are coming: 1 Peter 4:12-13 2. They come in various kinds: financial, relational, physical, emotional, spiritual, professional Why do they come? 1. They reveal our heart 2. They test and strengthen our faith 3. They produce character How can we rejoice in them?…

Public Faith means making our faith more than a private matter. Jesus warned the Jews about how the Pharisees made a show of religion and were hypocrites. We’re talking about authentically living out our faith. We must demonstrate our faith in the Lord Jesus Christ… By humility (1a) By mobility (1b)
