While I say that faith should be on display – I am not saying that it should be on display – for the sake of it being on display.
It should be on display because we are convicted of the truth of something. If we are convicted of the truth of something Godly and Right. We should be careful – to NOT let this world rob us of the blessing that comes from faith displayed.
Jas 2:14-18 What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? (15) If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, (16) And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? (17) Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. (18) Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
