James 2:18
| ← James 2:17 | James 2:18 (KJV) | James 2:19 → |
|---|---|---|
Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.
|
Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works.
|
Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
