14 | What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? |
15 | If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, |
16 | And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? |
17 | Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. |
18 | Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. |
19 | Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. |
20 | But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? |
21 | Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? |
22 | Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect? |
23 | And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. |
24 | Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only. |
25 | Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? |
26 | For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. |
