Then where does one stop and the other began, too many that profess to having the holy ghost based on speaking in tongues don't have the fruits to show for it.
This is what I think James was talking about then he said you say you have faith I will show you my faith by my works. I don't think the works he is speaking of are the works that so many three steppers call the steps of salvation. But the manifesting of the works or fruit of the spirit. The works he then list confirm this in my mind.
