Faith Without Works Is Dead

Fool! When will you ever learn that faith that does not result in good deeds is useless?
Don't you remember that our ancestor Abraham was declared right with God because of what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?

You see, he was trusting God so much that he was willing to do whatever God told him to do. His faith was made complete by what he did--by his actions.

And so it happened just as the Scriptures say: "Abraham believed God, so God declared him to be righteous."[a] He was even called "the friend of God."

So you see, we are made right with God by what we do, not by faith alone. Rahab the prostitute is another example of this. She was made right with God by her actions--when she hid those messengers and sent them safely away by a different road.

Just as the body is dead without a spirit, so also faith is dead without good deeds.

- James 2:20-26 NLT

So it with Love
WORDS alone do not count

if u Love somebody
your actions must manifest it
