I would disagree with this assessment. While I believe "True faith is CONFIRMED by works." a man's works does not confirm his faith. Rather it is our Lord's works through us that confirm our saving faith.
This might seem like hair spliting but it is a terribly important point. The works of the Spirit is joy, peace, self-control, etc. These are works that are manifested in a Christian life, not because of us but because of the Holy Spirit. We are His workmanship to bring us to good works. All Christians manifest some degree of good works or they are not a Christian. Abraham's works was a manifestation of God working through him.

Well, Paul says, “I have written unto you with mine own hand.” He did not write, “God has written unto you through me with mine own hand.” So I think you’re being a little hyper-critical. (That’s from the 6th chapter of the Letter of God Through Paul to the Galatians.) ;^)
