21 And Jesus, ^alooking at him, ^bloved him, and said to him, “You lack one thing: go, ^csell all that you have and give to the poor, and you will have ^dtreasure in heaven; and come, follow me.”

Luke 18:22

James 2:14-26

Faith Without Works Is Dead

14 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith ^kbut does not have works? Can that faith save him? 15 ^lIf a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lacking in daily food, 16 ^mand one of you says to them, “Go in peace, be warmed and filled,” without giving them the things needed for the body, what good ^{▼▼Or benefit} is that? 17 So also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.

18 But someone will say, “You have faith and I have works.” Show me your faith ^oapart from your works, and I will show you my faith ^pby my works. 19 ^qYou believe that God is one; you do well. Even ^rthe demons believe—and shudder! 20 Do you want to be shown, you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? 21 ^sWas not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar? 22 You see that ^tfaith was active along with his works, and faith was completed ^uby his works; 23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, ^v“Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a ^wfriend of God. 24 You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. 25 And in the same way was not also ^xRahab the prostitute justified by works ^ywhen she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? 26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.

2 Peter 1:5-7

5 For this very reason, make every effort to supplement your faith ^zwith virtue, ^{▼▼Or excellence; twice in this verse} and virtue ^abwith knowledge, 6 and knowledge with self-control, and self-control ^acwith steadfastness, and steadfastness with godliness, 7 and godliness ^adwith brotherly affection, and brotherly affection ^aewith love.
