James 2:24-26

Easy-to-Read Version

²⁴ So you see that people are made right with God by what they do. They cannot be made right by faith alone.

²⁵ Another example is Rahab. She was a prostitute, but she was made right with God by something she did. She helped those who were spying for God’s people. She welcomed them into her home and helped them escape by a different road.^[a]

²⁶ A person’s body that does not have a spirit is dead. It is the same with faith—faith that does nothing is dead!
