There are several misconceptions people have about faith and deeds. Some people think that our good deeds make us right with God. Others think that good deeds don’t matter because we are saved by what we believe. Some people revere those who seem to live very good lives and look down on others who don’t seem as good. What does the bible teach about the authentic relationship between faith and deeds? The apostle James (half-brother of the Lord Jesus) addresses this topic in chapter two of his book. He describes our deeds as evidence of our faith.
