What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? James 2:14
The Three Elements of True Saving Faith:
1. An intellectual element (notitia), which is a positive recognition of the Truth
2. An emotional element (assensus), which includes a deep conviction and affirmation of the Truth
3. And finally, a volitional element (fiducia), which involves a personal trust in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior.
This includes a genuine surrendering to His Lordship. (Meaning, we will have buying a real desire to obey the Word of God when we truly trust Him and His goodness for our life, and that will naturally be expressed through our actions). Obedience to God's Word is simply the by-product and outward expression of our faith in Him. Obeying God's Word is proof that our faith is authentic. Faith and obedience are inseparable. We can't have one without the other. We are not saved by works, but we are saved by grace through faith, which naturally produces good works. We are saved by grace through faith alone, but it is not a faith this is alone. God's grace is given to us so that we may obey Him, not so that we may live however we please.
The words faith and obedience / believe and obey / disbelieve and disobey are synonymous throughout all of Scripture, and they are the same words in the original Greek. (See John 3:36)
