'Works' in the Bible
What [is] the benefit, my brothers, if someone says [that he] has faith but does not have works? That faith [is] not able to save him, [is it]?
Thus also faith, if it does not have works, is dead by itself.
But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith apart from your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.
But do you want to know, O foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless?
Was not Abraham our father justified by works [when he] offered up his son Isaac on the altar?
You see that faith was working together with his works, and by the works the faith was perfected.
You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
And likewise was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works [when she] welcomed the messengers and sent [them] out by a different route?
For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.
Who [is] wise and understanding among you? Let him show by his good behavior his works, with the humility of wisdom.
