“ Study the life of Abraham! ” Unofficial brief ¶ Paul: If you think works enter into salvation, you are going to hell. Works are not necessary to be saved. Works aren't part of what brings us into right relationship to God. ¶ James: If you claim to have faith and have no works to prove you have that faith, you are going to hell.

Show me your faith without works, and I by my works will show you my faith. ¶ You can't see faith, but you can see the manifestation of it. "A good tree bares good fruit. A bad tree bares bad fruit!" There's faith and saving faith. Demons even have faith. If you have saving faith, you'll be a new creature in Christ. Demons never change. ¶ Abraham was tried by God when he was told to offer up Isaac--Abraham met the test of his faith by his actions.
