'Actions' in the Bible

What good does it do, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith but does not prove it with actions? This kind of faith cannot save him, can it?

In the same way, faith by itself, if it does not prove itself with actions, is dead.

But someone may say, "You have faith, and I have actions." Show me your faith without any actions, and I will show you my faith by my actions.

Do you want proof, you foolish person, that faith without actions is worthless?

Our ancestor Abraham was justified by his actions when he offered his son Isaac on the altar, wasn't he?

You see that his faith worked together with what he did, and by his actions his faith was made complete.

You observe that a person is justified through actions and not through faith alone.

Likewise, Rahab the prostitute was justified through actions when she welcomed the messengers and sent them away on a different road, wasn't she?

For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without actions is also dead.

Who among you is wise and understanding? Let him show by his noble conduct that his actions are done humbly and wisely.

The wisdom from above is first of all pure, then peaceful, courteous, not self-willed, full of compassion and kind actions, free from favouritism and from all insincerity.
