It is the divine purpose that faith is followed by works, writes James Poole and goes on to demonstrate the doctrine and practice cannot be separated. He considers what is practical for the Christian under the headings: Our relationship towards God Our relationship towards members of the Body of Christ Our relationship towards members of our family Our relationship towards people at work Our relationship towards the State Our relationship towards our enemies Our relationship towards all mankind These seven relationships cover everything for the Christian who desires to please the Lord in his practical life.
