Draw Near to God
The book of James is basic, entry-level, in-your-face Christianity. A real workout. Nothing fancy. No glamor-cize at the club. Just crunches, push-ups, and heavy bag work in a smelly basement gym. If you are up to the challenge, James will shape you into a hard-body believer. During this series, Fit Faith, we’ll tackle some of the most practical teaching outside of the gospels. James was known as "James the Just", someone who put his faith into practice in a real and practical way. James will stretch us to grasp the importance of putting our faith into action as described in God's word. Are you ready to get fit?

11-8-09 Galatians 3:19-24
(Galatians 3:19 KJV) Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator. (Galatians 3:20 KJV) Now a mediator is not a mediator of one, but God is one. (Galatians 3:21 KJV) Is the law then against the promises of God? God forbid: for if there had been a law given which could have given life, verily righteousness should have been by the law. (Galatians 3:22 KJV) But the scripture hath concluded all under sin, that the promise by faith of Jesus Christ might be given to them that believe. (Galatians 3:23 KJV) But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. (Galatians 3:24 KJV) Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith.

11-8-09 Romans 8:8-11 "Live in the Spirit"
(Romans 8:8 KJV) So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God. (Romans 8:9 KJV) But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. (Romans 8:10 KJV) And if Christ be in you, the body is dead because of sin; but the Spirit is life because of righteousness. (Romans 8:11 KJV) But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth in you. (Romans 8:12 KJV) Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh.
