What does True Faith Look Like? I believe that is exactly what James was arguing for In James 2:14-26.
Some have said that James is arguing that a person is saved by works. You can only draw that conclusion by “cherry picking” certain verses. It cannot be argued that the text (James 2:14-26) is teaching anything other than true faith always is demonstrated in good works or fruit that brings glory to the completely necessary and sufficient work of Jesus Christ on the cross, culminating in His resurrection ( I Corinthians 15:1-4, Ephesians 2:8-10).
