James 2:25

---

← James 2:24	James 2:25 (KJV)	James 2:26 →
Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only.	Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent [them] out another way?	For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
