Book of James

And if a brother or sister is naked and in lack of daily food,

and one of you tells them, "Go in peace, be warmed and filled;" and yet you didn't give them the things the body needs, what good is it?

Even so faith, if it has no works, is dead in itself.

Yes, a man will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith from your works, and I by my works will show you my faith.

You believe that God is one. You do well. The demons also believe, and shudder.

But do you want to know, vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?
