James 2:19-26

Wesley(i) 19 Thou believest there is one God: thou dost well: the devils also believe and tremble. 20 But art thou willing to know, O empty man, that faith without works is dead? 21 Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered up Isaac his son upon the altar? 22 Thou seest that faith wrought together with his works, and by works was faith made perfect. 23 And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed to him for righteousness: and he was called the friend of God. 24 Ye see then, that a man is justified by works, and not by faith only. 25 In like manner Rahab the harlot also was justified by works, having received the messengers and sent them out another way? 26 Therefore as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
