James 2:22-24

Twentieth_Century(i) 22 You see how, in his case, faith and actions went together; that his faith was perfected as the result of his actions; 23 And that in this way the words of Scripture came true-- "Abraham believed God, and that was regarded by God as righteousness," and "He was called the friend of God." 24 You see, then, that it is as the result of his actions that a man is pronounced righteous, and not of his faith only.
