NASB | James 2:14 ¶ What use is it, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but he has no works? Can that faith save him? |
AMPLIFIED 2015 | James 2:14 ¶ What is the benefit, my fellow believers, if someone claims to have faith but has no [good] works [as evidence]? Can that [kind of] faith save him? [No, a mere claim of faith is not sufficient--genuine faith produces good works.] |
Bible Question: dear one, is simple faith, trust and belief alone a sufficient work to save one, and can dead faith be ressurected? dasev |
Bible Answer: As long as the belief is in Jesus, salvation is certain. Ephesians 2:8-9 shows, however, that work is not how we are saved. We are saved by grace through faith alone. Dead faith can be made alive. |
