When our focus remains upon Jesus we are able to live within the right relationship God intended. This sermon does a survey of the entire book of Hebrews with the emphasis upon keeping our eyes upon Jesus. Paul wrote Hebrews as one of his later prison epistles meaning he could not have had a different gospel or means of salvation contained in the book. The book was penned by Timothy for Paul and mailed from Italy (after Paul arrived there in Acts chapter 28). The book definitely emphasizes the eternal security of the believer.

Great Sermon! Romans 4:2 For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God.
Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.
You mentioned the verses from James but it that justification were salvific, it would contradict this passage:
Acts 13:39 And by him all that believe are justified from all things, from which ye could not be justified by the law of Moses.
Abraham never offered Isaac so anyone saying that Abraham's offering of Isaac justified him would need to produce the sacrifice. What was behind the willingness to offer? FAITH, FAITH, FAITH!!!!
Abraham believed by faith in the resurrection (according to Jesus).
John 8:56 Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad.
