James 2:20-23

20But would you like evidence, you empty fellow, that faith without works is useless?

21Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar?

22You see that his faith was working together with his works and his faith was perfected by works.

23And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Now Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend.
