Faith Without Works Is Dead
But are you willing to recognize, you foolish fellow, that faith
without works is useless?
Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up Isaac
his son on the altar?
You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the
works, faith was perfected;
and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "AND ABRAHAM BELIEVED GOD,
AND IT WAS RECKONED TO HIM AS RIGHTEOUSNESS," and he was called the
friend of God.
You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.
In the same way, was not Rahab the harlot also justified by works when
she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?
For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without
works is dead.
James 2:20-26 NASB
