James 2:26

For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
All Commentaries on James 2:26 Go To James 2

John Chrysostom

AD 407
Faith without works is dead, and works without faith are dead also. For if we have sound doctrine but fail in living, the doctrine is of no use to us. Likewise if we take pains with life but are careless about doctrine, that will not be any good to us either. It is therefore necessary to shore up the spiritual edifice in both directions. (Sermons on Genesis 2.14)
