2:10 For we are his workmanship, having been created in Christ Jesus for good works that God prepared beforehand so we may do them.
James 2:14-26
Faith and Works Together
2:14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but does not have works? Can this kind of faith save him?
2:15 If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacks daily food,
2:16 and one of you says to them, “Go in peace, keep warm and eat well,” but you do not give them what the body needs, what good is it?
2:17 So also faith, if it does not have works, is dead being by itself.
2:18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith without works and I will show you faith by my works.
2:19 You believe that God is one; well and good. Even the demons believe that – and tremble with fear.
2:20 But would you like evidence, you empty fellow, that faith without works is useless?
2:21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?
2:22 You see that his faith was working together with his works and his faith was perfected by works.
2:23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Now Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend.
2:24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
2:25 And similarly, was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she welcomed the messengers and sent them out by another way?
2:26 For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
