The epistle of James was written to encourage readers to live consistently in light of what they say they believe. The text focuses on maturity, character, and the hallmarks of true faith; but this short book has invited considerable controversy through the years.

Faith Without Works Is Dead Quote
- Faith without works is dead
- If faith without work is dead, the willingness with action is fantasy
- Your beliefs don’t make you a better person; your behaviour does
- Don’t ask God to guide your footsteps if you’re not willing to move your feet.

14 (B)What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?
15 (C)If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, 16 and (D)one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?
17 Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
