Do What It Says!

by Alistair Begg

James 1:22–25
 (ID: 2566)

Listening to the Word of God is important—but merely listening without being changed is dangerous. In this message from James 1, Alistair Begg clarifies many misconceptions people have about the relationship between our salvation by grace and our obedience to God’s law. Although Christians are not made right with God by obeying the law, our freedom in Christ leads us to respond to the Bible with careful obedience.
