James 2:22-24
1599 Geneva Bible
22 Seest thou not that the faith [a]wrought with his works? and through the works was the faith made [b]perfect.
23 And the Scripture was [c]fulfilled which saith, (A)Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the friend of God.
24 [d]Ye see then how that of works a man is [e]justified, and not of [f]faith only.
