Exodus 31-33: James 2

Good Morning Truth Seekers! Exodus 31-33 is quite shocking in the sense that the people who have seen the work of God turn back to worshipping an idol. The familiar call each of us back to the life we knew before we professed faith in Jesus. In a time of panic or distress people will reveal who they really are. Moses takes a sword to his rebellious people and makes it clear that anyone who opposes God is his enemy. Sin cannot be eliminated, it has to be eradicated. God became so disappointed that he threatened to be finish with them. I think stiff necked speaks to the his frustration and his amazement that changing their hearts was so difficult. But thanks be to God that Moses intervene for the people. Remember we have an intercessor who continues to God on our behalf.

James 2 starts off with treat everyone the same. Do not discriminate against anyone. The word and work of God is available to all; poor and rich. Love everyone. A follow up to chapter one in two is summed up in, :Faith without works is dead. Bob Buford says, faith with out work dies. What you believe along with what you do equals faith.
