Faith and Works

Doug Wilson Says ‘Promises are Apprehended by Faith’ and Also by ‘Works’

(Updated on ) | Opinion by Nathan Wells

Doug Wilson blurs the line between faith and works, saying 'faithfulness (works)' receives God's promises. Is this the gospel or a works-based heresy?

“I have argued that promises are apprehended by faith, not faithfulness or fidelity, but, of course, faith in the biblical sense is inseparable from faithfulness. Faith is invisible to the human eye, but faith’s constant companion—faithfulness—is not invisible. Nevertheless, it is faith that receives the promises, overthrows kingdoms, and stops the mouths of lions. If we adopt the shorthand of James, we could say that faithfulness (works) does these things also, but we would be using his shorthand.” — Doug Wilson

And if the black mold is deep in your walls, another coat of paint is not the solution anybody should be looking for.” — Doug Wilson “What course should a man pursue?....he should require something very simple, i.e., that the dishes be done after every meal before anything else is done....If she continues to rebel after patient effort, he should at some point call the elders of the church and ask them for a pastoral visit.” — Doug Wilson
