James also tells us that faith without works is empty — nothing.

I agree: Just as the body is dead without breath, so also faith is dead without good works. James 2:26

I thought this article was about using and loving the Bible Salvation. If it is, why do you not use the whole thing?

“Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God? Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.” John 6:28-29

<James also tells us that faith without works is empty — nothing.<

And yet the Reformers preached strongly that the only a kind of faith which appropriates justification is one that will effect obedience toward its object: http://peacebyjesus.witnesstoday.org/Reformation_faith_works.html

Meanwhile, today it is RCs which come in near to last in commitment and upholding moral values in survey after survey: \http://www.peacebyjesus.com/RC-Stats_vs._Evang.html
