Faith Alone

In this episode, Jeff and Craig revisit justification by faith alone and explain why James and Paul are not contradicting each other. Using Abraham as the key example, they distinguish God’s legal declaration of righteousness credited by faith from the outward evidence of living faith that produces works, and they close by grounding the order of salvation in Ephesians 2.
