Depends on what you mean by “works”. Cuz there’s works, and then there’s works. :-)

The term is used to mean different things in the Bible. Until we can determine what a speaker/writer means by it, we can’t understand what he’s saying.

Oh come now. Catholics have it all figured out. They say that ἔργον - ergon in James 2:14 means something different then the ἔργον - ergon in Romans 4:4 and that means something different then the ἔργον - ergon in Romans 4:5. But the ἔργον - ergon in all of those means something different then the ἔργον - ergon in Romans 2:20.
