...Faith that saves is never alone I think that dove-tails nicely with James' comments on faith & works.

There are three kinds of faith:
- Dead faith--that affects only the intellect. One knows (in his head the truth, but it goes no further.
- Demonic faith--it affects not only the intellect, but also the emotions--even the demons believe--and tremble.
- Saving Faith--affects the intellect, the emotions, and prompts the believer to act. Disciples try to imitate their master--and do everything he does. Not only in this world, but with Jesus as well.

Faith will save you. Works will not save you.
However, good works are evidence that true saving faith is present.
