Delen

In the same way, faith is dead when it doesn’t result in faithful activity.

As the lifeless body is dead, so faith without actions is dead.

My brothers and sisters, what good is it if people say they have faith but do nothing to show it? Claiming to have faith can’t save anyone, can it?

It’s good that you believe that God is one. Ha! Even the demons believe this, and they tremble with fear.

Someone might claim, “You have faith and I have action.” But how can I see your faith apart from your actions? Instead, I’ll show you my faith by putting it into practice in faithful action.

There will be no mercy in judgment for anyone who hasn’t shown mercy. Mercy overrules judgment.

So you see that a person is shown to be righteous through faithful actions and not through faith alone.

See, his faith was at work along with his actions. In fact, his faith was made complete by his faithful actions.
