So, you don’t believe in God?

So, you don’t believe in God?

“You believe in God here?” <said person #1>
“Only a fool would not.” <replied person #2>

from “Immanuel’s Veins” by Ted Dekker

Faith and Deeds

^{Jas 2:14} What good is it, my brothers, if a man claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save him? ¹⁵ Suppose a brother or sister is without clothes and daily food. ¹⁶ If one of you says to him, “Go, I wish you well; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about his physical needs, what good is it? ¹⁷ In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.
^{Jas 2:18} But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.”
Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by what I do.
¹⁹ You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.  
<emphasis added>

In the quote above, person #2 is evil.

So – you don’t believe in God?

If you don’t believe in God,
I can’t help but wonder – what does that mean for you?
Aren’t you even a little bit concerned?
If not – you will be.
Hopefully before it’s too late.
