1 Faith is breathing in the Gospel of Jesus.
Works are breathing out the life of Jesus.

2 James 2:14-26 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? 17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead.

3 James 2:14-26 18 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds. 19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder. 20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?

4 James 2:14-26  22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone.

5 James 2:14-26 25 In the same way, was not even Rahab the prostitute considered righteous for what she did when she gave lodging to the spies and sent them off in a different direction? 26 As the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without deeds is dead.

6 Romans 3:28 ‘For we maintain that a man is justified by faith apart from works of the Law.’ He also said in Romans 4:5 ‘But to the one who does not work, but believes in Him who justifies the ungodly, his faith is credited as righteousness.’

7 James 2:14-16 14 What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? 15 Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. 16 If one of you says to them, “Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,” but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it?

18 Titus 1:16 “They profess to know God, but by their deeds they deny Him, being detestable and disobedient and worthless for any good deed.”  

19 1 John 1:6 “ If we say that we have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.” 1 John 2:5b-6 “By this we know that we are in Him: the one who says he abides in Him ought himself to walk in the same manner as He walked.”

20 James 2:18, 19 But someone will say, “You have faith; I have deeds.” Show me your faith without deeds, and I will show you my faith by my deeds.  19 You believe that there is one God. Good! Even the demons believe that—and shudder.

22 James 2:18, 19 20 You foolish person, do you want evidence that faith without deeds is useless? 21 Was not our father Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called God’s friend. 24 You see that a person is considered righteous by what they do and not by faith alone.

23 Romans 4:1-3 “What then shall we say that Abraham, our forefather according to the flesh, discovered in this matter? 2) If, in fact, Abraham was justified by works, he had something to boast about—but not before God. 3) What does Scripture say? “Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness.”
