James 2:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

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

Also a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: show me thy faith without thy works, and I will show thee my faith by my works.

For in Jesus Christ neither circumcision availeth any thing, nor uncircumcision; but faith which worketh by love.

By faith Abraham, when he was tried, offered up Isaac: and he that had received the promises offered up his only-begotten son,

But whoever keepeth his word, in him verily is the love of God perfected: by this we know that we are in him.

In this is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world.

And Abraham stretched forth his hand, and took the knife to slay his son.

Ye see then that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.
