Faith Never Saved Anyone
August 4, 2021
Summary
Here's a controversial statement: Faith never saved anybody. While that may sound shocking to many Christians, it's true. Faith doesn't save sinners; Jesus does. Faith is simply the means through which the merit and work of Christ are applied to us. Jon and Justin talk about the confusion that exists in the church today and how we tend to place our faith in things that don't save.

Welcome to Theocast, encouraging weary pilgrims to rest in Christ.
Conversations about the Christian life from a reformed and pastoral perspective.
The pastors and hosts today are behind the microphone are Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.
And I am John Moffat.
I'm the pastor of Grace Reform Church in Springhill, Tennessee.
Justin, as you like to say, we have met to podcast, and more importantly, we have met to discuss the man whom we trust in more than all and find our rest, Jesus Christ.
Amen.
That's why we're really here.
The man Jesus.
It is.
So, the God-man Jesus Christ who is saved from our sins.
That's right.
