James 2:20-24 But do you want proof, my senseless friend, that faith without good deeds amounts to nothing?

Goodspeed⁽ⁱ⁾ ²⁰ But do you want proof, my senseless friend, that faith without good deeds amounts to nothing? ²¹ Was not our forefather Abraham made upright for his good deeds, for offering his son Isaac on the altar? ²² You see that in his case faith and good deeds worked together; faith found its highest expression in good deeds, ²³ and so the Scripture came true that says, "Abraham had faith in God, and it was credited to him as uprightness, and he was called God's friend." ²⁴ You see a man is made upright by his good deeds and not simply by having faith.
