So you see, faith by itself isn’t enough. Unless it produces good deeds, it is dead and useless.

Just as the body is dead without breath, so also faith is dead without good works.

What good is it, dear brothers and sisters, if you say you have faith but don’t show it by your actions? Can that kind of faith save anyone?

You say you have faith, for you believe that there is one God. Good for you! Even the demons believe this, and they tremble in terror.

Now someone may argue, “Some people have faith; others have good deeds.” But I say, “How can you show me your faith if you don’t have good deeds? I will show you my faith by my good deeds.”

There will be no mercy for those who have not shown mercy to others. But if you have been merciful, God will be merciful when he judges you.

So you see, we are shown to be right with God by what we do, not by faith alone.

You see, his faith and his actions worked together. His actions made his faith complete.
