James - ch 2 v 21 - 26
- Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?
- You see that faith worked with his works, and by works faith was perfected;
- and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness;"1 and he was called the friend of God.
- You see then that by works, a man is justified, and not only by faith.
- In like manner wasn't Rahab the prostitute also justified by works, in that she received the messengers, and sent them out another way?
- For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead.
- Genesis 15:16
