Practice what you Preach!

Faith without works is but an empty shell, promising on the outside, but further examination detects little or no substance. It is essential that we put our faith to work. It is imperative that we step out on faith and on God's word if we are to have productive and substantive lives. A true believer demonstrates his faith through, among other things, obedience. Start with obeying God's commandment to love your fellow men, even when you disagree with them on some issues. Obeying God's commandment to put him first, even though the world and our own flesh want to do otherwise. It takes faith to live according to God's will. But to just say you have faith and not live it out accomplishes nothing at all. Put your faith to work, practice what you preach.
