Subject: Understanding the Relationship Between Faith and Action (04/24/'24) -Statement

Subject: Understanding the Relationship Between Faith and Action In understanding the relationship between faith and action, it becomes evident that trust is cultivated through changed behavior. Our faith in Christ opens our minds and eyes, guiding us to pay more attention to our deeds than our words or thoughts. We witness the transformative power of the Holy Spirit in our habits. If our religious practice is motivated solely by fear of punishment or hope of reward, it signifies a deficiency. It's crucial to recognize that faith isn't an escape from reality but an embrace of it. As depicted in Matthew 25:34-40, our actions towards others are a reflection of our devotion to God.
