I'm with you. You know your faith by your works.Faith and works go together. Sure, you can't go to heaven on works alone, but works solidifies your faith and makes one stronger.Many times works is a test of our faith in that we may not always agree with God's decisions or directions but like Abraham, we sometime have to just pack up the family and the dog and blindly go.It's his works that reenforced his faith. Faith, like Love,is just a word. Your worst enemy can say to you "I Love You",but is it true love? no.It is when you give it a body, and then it becomes REAL FAITH AND TRUE LOVE. In closing , I'd like to say that there are alot of couch christians that love to have all the faith in the world and just sit on their couches, and not dirty their hands.Christians are dying all over the world because by FAITH, they go to do their WORKS.
