James 2:20

20 Are you so slow? Do you need to be shown that faith without actions has no value at all?

James 2:20 In-Context

18 Someone might claim, "You have faith and I have action." But how can I see your faith apart from your actions? Instead, I'll show you my faith by putting it into practice in faithful action.
19 It's good that you believe that God is one. Ha! Even the demons believe this, and they tremble with fear.
20 Are you so slow? Do you need to be shown that faith without actions has no value at all?
21 What about Abraham, our father? Wasn't he shown to be righteous through his actions when he offered his son Isaac on the altar?
22 See, his faith was at work along with his actions. In fact, his faith was made complete by his faithful actions.
