“For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.” (James 2:26, KJV)
This verse is part of a larger passage (James 2:14-26) where James emphasizes that genuine faith is demonstrated through actions. He argues that faith is not merely intellectual belief but is made alive and complete by good works.
“So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.” (Romans 10:17, ESV)
The Bible serves as a guide, directing me to the living Word, the Logos. When I hear His voice, believe what He speaks, and act on what I have heard, my faith is made alive through works. This union of faith and action leads me to righteousness—not through legalistic effort, but through obedience to the living Word. It is in this dynamic relationship, guided by the Logos, that I walk in alignment with God’s will and grow in holiness.
