James 2:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?

But someone may well say, “You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.”

For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything, but faith working through love.

By faith Abraham, when he was tested, offered up Isaac, and he who had received the promises was offering up his only begotten son;

but whoever keeps His word, in him the love of God has truly been perfected. By this we know that we are in Him:

By this, love is perfected with us, so that we may have confidence in the day of judgment; because as He is, so also are we in this world.

Abraham stretched out his hand and took the knife to slay his son.

You see that a man is justified by works and not by faith alone.
