So does the Protestant Bible have the Letter of James in it?

I really don’t understand how protestants don’t believe the Letter of James.

That wasn't what was said. If you had read Faith Presses On's actual comment, you wouldn't have asked that. Maybe you should go back and read it.

James says this in his letter.

James 2:23 and the Scripture was fulfilled that says, “Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness”—and he was called a friend of God.

Abraham was saved by faith, his faith being credited to him as righteousness simply on the basis of believing God, BEFORE he did any works.

Christians do believe James.

They don't believe the common Roman misinterpretations of James.

Maybe if you thought to inquire about what Protestants actually believe instead of mind reading every one of us, you would understand.

But you seem to possess a stubborn insistence on strawman depictions of us. What’s up with that?
