But he must ask in faith, without any doubts, for the one who has doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.

My brothers, do not let your faith in our glorious Lord Jesus, the Messiah, be tainted by favoritism.

Listen, my dear brothers! God has chosen the poor in the world to become rich in faith and to be heirs of the kingdom that he promised to those who keep on loving him, has he not?

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?

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.

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

And the prayer offered in faith will save the person who is sick. The Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed any sins, he will be forgiven.

Through faith you are being protected by God's power for a salvation that is ready to be revealed at the end of this era.

so that your genuine faith, which is more valuable than gold that perishes when tested by fire, may result in praise, glory, and honor when Jesus, the Messiah, is revealed.

because you are receiving the goal of your faith, the salvation of your souls.

Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and gave him glory, so that your faith and hope might be in God.

Resist him and be firm in the faith, because you know that your brothers throughout the world are undergoing the same kinds of suffering.

From: Simeon Peter, a servant and apostle of Jesus, the Messiah. To: Those who have received faith that is as valuable as ours through the righteousness of our God and Savior, Jesus the Messiah.

For this very reason, you must make every effort to supplement your faith with moral character, your moral character with knowledge,

because everyone who is born from God has overcome the world. Our faith is the victory that overcomes the world.

Dear friends, although I was eager to write to you about the salvation we share, I found it necessary to write to you and urge you to continue your vigorous defense of the faith that was passed down to the saints once and for all.

But you, dear friends, must continue to build your most holy faith for your own benefit. Furthermore, continue to pray in the Holy Spirit.

"I know where you live. Satan's throne is there. Yet you hold on to my name and have not denied your faith in me, even in the days of Antipas, my faithful witness, who was killed in your presence, where Satan lives.

If anyone is to be taken captive, into captivity he will go. If anyone is to be killed with a sword, with a sword he will be killed. Here is a call for endurance and faith of the saints:
