You guys really make me laugh. You've read the entire thread? Good for you! Of course if you haven't read the entire thread and all the other threads, then you don't know what we get around to or fail to get around to. Then who should laugh? Enjoy laughing.

And as I predicted, he didn't deal with Rom.4

So, maybe you would like to explain what Paul was saying in Rom.4 that can be reconciled with James?

James can be reconciled with Paul if one understands that James is saying that works show faith, but not that works are part of faith that one needs to get saved.

Until a Roman Catholic does address what Paul said, I will keep laughing.

[Mad Dawg]

Laugh all you like. I'm interested in conversation, and I see only taunts. From the very first page of this thread, where we were characterized as demon worshippers and idolaters, right up to now I have "felt the love" and I've had enough, thanks. As James says, more or less, Laugh now, weep later.

[Dr. Eckleburg]

James can be reconciled with Paul if one understands that James is saying that works show faith, but not that works are part of faith that one needs to get saved.

Amen!

Scripture interprets Scripture.

"For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:

Not of works, lest any man should boast.

For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them." -- Ephesians 2:8-10
