James 2:22-24

22 You see that his faith worked with his actions; by the actions the faith was made complete; 23 and the passage of the Tanakh was fulfilled which says, “Avraham had faith in God, and it was credited to his account as righteousness.”[a] He was even called God’s friend.[b] 24 You see that a person is declared righteous because of actions and not because of faith alone.
