Faith and Action

Faith has two aspects.

If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved (Romans 10:9).
Faith begins with belief in the heart. What is in the heart is then manifested in some word or action.
       Faith = {Believe in heart
                 {Confess with lips.
The Greek word for confess is “homologesis”. It literally means “same word”. When confessing we agree with God’s word.

Faith is certainty in the heart, but it also requires some action to make it real. Faith without action is just a rattling gong (James 2:17,18).
