Faith
          1 What does it profit if one says he has faith and
          has not works? Can faith save him? If a brother

          or sister be naked and destitute of daily food,
          and one of you say to them, Depart in peace,
          be warmed and filled; and you don’t give them
          those  things  which  are  needful  to  the  body;
          what does it profit? Even so, faith, if it has

          not works it is dead, being alone. Yes, a man
          may  say,  you  have  faith,  and  I  have  works:
          show  me  your  faith  without  works,  and  I  will
          show you my faith by my works.


          If  you  believe  that  there  is  one  God,  you  do
          well:  the  devils  also  believe  and  tremble.
          But you know that faith without works is dead.
          2 So then faith comes by hearing, and hearing

          by the word of God. 3 Your faith should not
          stand in the wisdom of men but in the power of
          God. 4 Scripture has concluded we are all under
          sin,  so  the  promise  by  faith  of  Jesus  Christ
          might be given to all those who believe.


          But before faith came, we were kept under the
          law, closed to the faith which should afterward
