Pure Religion vs. Pointless Religion

Aug 20, 2025    Pastor Marc Williamson

Tonight, Pastor Marc continues our midweek study with a powerful message from James 1:26–27: “Pure Religion vs. Pointless Religion.”


Many claim Christianity is “not a religion, but a relationship.” While that’s partly true, James reminds us that true saving faith produces pure religion—a faith that transforms the heart, tames the tongue, cares for the needy, and pursues holiness.


In this message, Pastor Marc unpacks:


The pretense of pointless religion – outward rituals without inward change.

The practice of pure religion – compassion, holiness, and Spirit-led obedience.

The precaution of pure religion – staying unspotted from the world.


Is your faith producing the evidence of pure religion? Or is it merely empty ritual? Join us as we examine this vital truth together.
