The Faith Of Devils

Have you ever been told that believing the Gospel was not enough?

Have you ever been told that devils believe the Gospel, and they tremble?

Did the person appeal to James 2:19?

If some knucklehead has told you this, then please watch this video.

The best book ever written on the subject
of "Saving Faith" was written by Gordon H. Clark.
Gordon H. Clark correctly explains that the faith of devils, spoken about in James 2:19, is merely a belief in monotheism.

Clark writes: "It is no more than a belief in monotheism. This the Moslems posess" (Faith And Saving Faith, page 47).

Context: James 2:14-25, Actions speak louder than word.

@suggesttwo,

You're totally messed up:

actions don't speak, only rational beings do, and when they do they use words--RFLOL!

Another excellent video.

Sola Christa!

Thanks,

Do you know Federal Vision attempts to redefine saving faith to include our own works?

ReformedLou, in his video response to this video, defines saving faith to include "that reformed character." Lou does this at the 5:23 mark of his video. Lou asserts the object of saving faith is NOT what Christ alone did for us, but also our character / righteousness--contradicting Romans 3:28.

Remember, it's ONLY the object of our faith, Christ alone, that justifies, NOT the act of it.

@RedBeetle Great vid. I just got done debating an atheist who said that objects that he senses with his eyes and ears gave him the proposition of empiricism. Poor guy, rocks were talking to him.

"actions speak louder than words" the guy says. But all of our actions are preceded by a thought in our mind, which is based on a proposition. Hopefully that proposition is from God's words.

Seems like folks are keen to have inanimate objects speak to them. Anything excepting the Bible's words.

@RedBeetle reelayions 20:14,15tells us that we will be judged based on our deeds.what about faith without works is dead,or when the guy asked jesus how he could achieve eternal life and he told him to follow the law....there are many more examples of where woks is required how can you sat you have faith and not do your part to justify your faith by working towards a goal of purifying the temple.it certainly does not happen by autopilot.

I have been learning about Federal Vision, whose proponants apparently believe a deviant unbiblical view of salvation.

Can the Sacraments communicate blessings apart from faith? Is a person given new life be virtue of baptismal union with Christ?

I suppose if you rewrote the Bible to include these heretical views this could be true.

Is this indeed what people are attempting to do? How do they justify these views?

I see I have much to learn.

And btw, yes, I did watch the video and I must heartily agree with you.

Why is it that people cannot study the Word and come away with a right understanding of it?

I remember when Jesus called the Pharasees 'blind guides...For you shut the Kingdom of heaven in people's faces. For you neither enter yourselves nor allow those who would enter to go in".

There is an astounding amount of this going on here at YT.
