James 2:22

Treasury of Scripture Knowledge

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

Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

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

By faith, Abraham, being tested, offered up Isaac. Yes, he who had gladly received the promises was offering up his one and only son;

But whoever keeps his word, God's love has most certainly been perfected in him. This is how we know that we are in him:

In this love has been made perfect among us, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment, because as he is, even so are we in this world.

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

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