The Danger of Passive Christianity | Pastor Ben Dixon

As Christians, we know that our primary responsibility is to follow Jesus through faithful obedience to His Word. However, when life is hard, plans don’t work out, and prayers go unanswered it can be easy to shut down and stop responding to the truths that we hold dear. Additionally, we face an enemy who seeks to persuade us toward a passive and inactive faith that knows the Word but never responds. James was aware that the church of his day struggled with a passive faith and the same can be true for us today. As we dive into our passage we will observe a clear command, a serious warning, and a glorious promise which will enable us to be responsive Christians who hear God’s Word and do what it says.
