“Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone.”
James 2:17
James 2:18-20
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.
Jam 2:19 Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.
Jam 2:20 But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead?”
the little (inconvenient) book of James. Largely ignored because it doesn’t fir the ‘doctrine of man”?
Ignored because it was written by James?
(James The Just was the blood brother of Jesus and leader of the church after Jesus, not Peter, until killed in 62 AD - Peter and John were his 2 counselors. All in the Bible - but inconvenient, so skipped over.)
Oh this is what I so love about the LDS. Even they can't agree on what they believe on a most important subject. We have on telling us of salvation by grace, no self works and another with the tried and true misinterpretation of James touting how much we need works...
And the LDS want us to agree they are Christians...
