What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Is faith able to save him?

You believe that God is One. You do well. Even the demons believe, and shudder.

But are you willing to understand, O vain man, that faith apart from works is dead?

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith apart from works is dead also.

And if I were to bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and if I were to give my body to be burned, but have not love, it profits me nothing.

And now remain faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

remembering without ceasing your work of faith, labor of love, and patience of hope in our Lord Jesus Christ in the sight of our God and Father,

Now the purpose of the commandment is love from a pure heart, from a good conscience, and from sincere faith,

But also for this very reason, giving all diligence, supply with your faith virtue, with virtue knowledge,

with godliness brotherly affection, and with brotherly affection love.

For he who lacks these things is shortsighted, even to blindness, and has forgotten that he was cleansed from his sins of the past.
