What I read instead is that ones faith is revealed, not by their words, but by their actions, their works. I think this is the reason Jesus tests us or perhaps why He lets Satan have his way with us from time to time. Its to see if weve learned His lessons, to see if we mean what we say or if were just being hypocrites and con artists with Him and with ourselves.
Question: Does Almighty God need to see our actions to know if our faith is genuine or can He see within our hearts?
