14 My brothers, what benefit is there if someone claims to have faith, but he does not have works? How would faith be able to save him?
15 So if a brother or sister is naked and daily in need of food,
16 and if anyone of you were to say to them: "Go in peace, keep warm and nourished," and yet not give them the things that are necessary for the body, of what benefit is this?
17 Thus even faith, if it does not have works, is dead, in and of itself.
18 Now someone may say: "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without works! But I will show you my faith by means of works.
19 You believe that there is one God. You do well. But the demons also believe, and they tremble greatly.
20 So then, are you willing to understand, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?
