Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. When Jesus returns to judge the world, He won't ask what you believed. He won't inquire about your denominational affiliation. He won't test your theological positions. He won't ask how many services you attended or how much Scripture you memorized. He'll ask seven diagnostic questions: I was hungry. Did you feed me? I was thirsty. Did you give me drink? I was a stranger. Did you welcome me?I was naked. Did you clothe me?I was sick. Did you visit me? I was in prison. Did you remember me?What did you do with the widows and orphans? These aren't symbolic questions. They're diagnostic ones. And according to Jesus, the answers determine everything.Why do good people-people who believe the right things, pray sincerely, and attend faithfully-so often fail to practice the mercy they profess?Through the haunting story of Eliakim, a man who was religiously correct but obediently inert, Their Works Follow Them confronts the uncomfortable gap between the faith we claim and the lives we actually live. Eliakim believed all the right things. He could articulate systematic theology with precision. He tithed faithfully, attended every service, and served on multiple committees. By every measurable standard, he was a model Christian. But when mercy mattered, he was absent. A Theological Meditation on Matthew 25:31-46 and James 1:22-27 Drawing on 250+ scholarly sources and anchored in Scripture, this groundbreaking work examines why cognitive assent so rarely translates into behavioral transformation. What mechanisms of delay, delegation, and theological rationalization keep mercy theoretical? How do we reconcile salvation by grace through faith with Jesus's insistence that our works reveal the authenticity of our belief? What You'll Discover: Why faith without works isn't just incomplete-it's dead. The difference between orthodoxy (right belief) and orthopraxy (right practice).What Jesus actually meant by "the least of these".How to identify the patterns that keep mercy at arm's length.Biblical frameworks for translating conviction into concrete action.The seven questions Jesus will ask-and how to answer them. What "pure and undefiled religion" looks like in daily life Rigorously Researched. Practically Applied.This is not devotional reading. This is not light theology. This is a mirror held up to modern Christianity-and what it reflects will challenge everything you thought you knew about what it means to follow Jesus. Each of the 29 chapters concludes with penetrating study questions designed to move readers from theoretical agreement to honest self-examination.Who This Book Is For: Believers tired of Christianity that's heavy on words and light on action. Small groups and Bible studies seeking challenging, substantive material.Pastors concerned about congregational apathy toward the vulnerable.Anyone who loves deep theological exploration paired with practical applicationReaders of Dallas Willard, Dietrich Bonhoeffer, N.T. Wright, and Scot McKnightWhat's Inside: 29 Chapters of rigorous theological exploration.174+ Study Questions for personal reflection and group discussion250+ Scholarly Sources spanning theology, history, and social science.Comprehensive Scripture Index for Bible studyDetailed Topical Index for research and reference.The story of Eliakim woven throughout as a diagnostic mirror "These aren't symbolic questions. They're diagnostic ones."The church has become very good at believing and very poor at doing. We can articulate sophisticated theology, debate eschatology, and parse Greek verbs.
