If Christians throughout history had promoted good works as fervently as they promoted the "good news", I expect much more good would have been accomplished.
Problem is, doing good works requires far more self-sacrifice (love) than telling good news -- and we H.saps tend to take the easy way out.
This is probably part of what James meant when he said, "Faith without works is dead." Today, the stench of that death within Christianity is evident to all.
