James 2:12-19
[12] Speak and act as people who will be judged by the law that sets us free.
[13] For God will not show mercy when he judges the person who has not been merciful; but mercy triumphs over judgement.
[14] My brothers and sisters, what good is it for people to say that they have faith if their actions do not prove it? Can that faith save them?
[15] Suppose there are brothers or sisters who need clothes and don't have enough to eat.
[16] What good is there in your saying to them, “God bless you! Keep warm and eat well!” — if you don't give them the necessities of life?
[17] So it is with faith: if it is alone and includes no actions, then it is dead.
[18] But someone will say, “One person has faith, another has actions.” My answer is, “Show me how anyone can have faith without actions. I will show you my faith by my actions.”
[19] Do you believe that there is only one God? Good! The demons also believe — and tremble with fear.
