Faith without works is dead.: fix grammar
James 2:20, "...that faith without works is dead." ~[[User:Darth Stabro|Darth Stabro]] <sub>~[[User_talk:Darth Stabro|(Talk)]]</sub> 06:09, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
:Yep. "What doth it profit, my brethren, if a man say he hath faith, but have not works? ''can that faith save him?''" And also, "Was not Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son upon the altar?" Luther tried to remove the Book of James from his German Bible translation - in the end, though, he couldn't justify it, so he stuck he the epistle in his appendix instead. However, Luther ''did'' remove the deuterocanon from the Bible, because the Jews decided (long after Jesus came) not to include it in their canon. Apparently, even though the reformers claimed the Bible is the sole authority ("Sola Scriptura"), they felt like they had the authority to say what the Bible is! :P -- [[User:P.B. Pilhet|P.B.
