Faith Works!

Let’s compare our Salvation to winning a free vacation package to the island paradise of Tahiti. You can have all the adventure, and pleasure of something you could possibly never afford,

BUT...

you must believe there is such a place

you must believe it’s a legitimate offer

you must clear your schedule

you must get a passport

you must get the actual ticket or online confirmation number

you must pack and prepare to go

you must secure a ride to the airport

you must follow all security protocols

in relation to, behavior, what you carry on your person and what is in your luggage

Similarly, there are MANY things that we do to demonstrate our faith in God’s all grace offer of salvation. These attitudes and action are required for us to get to the promised destination of God’s eternal Kingdom of perpetual light. Most of Jesus’ parables are illustrative of attitudes, actions and responses of people to the gracious offer of eternal life and what the results were for them. Everyone has been given the offer, but few actually make it on the plane. Faith has to have “works.” You better believe that or you’ll never make it. Some have missed the flight simply by taking too long in the restroom.
