James 2:26

The Scriptures 1998

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so also the belief is dead without the works.

See the chapter Copy

But do you wish to know, O foolish man, that the belief without the works is dead?

So also belief, if it does not have works, is in itself dead.

My brothers, what use is it for anyone to say he has belief but does not have works? This belief is unable to save him.

and the dust returns to the earth as it was, and the spirit returns to Elohim who gave it.

You hide Your face, they are alarmed; You take away their breath, they die and return to their dust;

And crying out with a loud voice, יהושע said, “Father, into Your hands I commit My spirit.” And having said this, He breathed His last.

Cease from man, whose breath is in his nostrils, for in what is he to be reckoned upon?

His spirit goes out, he returns to his earth; In that day his plans perish.

For in Messiah יהושע neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any strength, but belief working through love.
