Bible Note: Greetings Charis and Tim! May I butt in here? I don't think that the message of James is Faith plus Works equals Salvation. Rather, I think his message is Faith Works! James is not writing that his listeners need to DO something else to be saved. He is writing that they need to DO something because they have Faith. Faith that doesn't work is dead.
