  15. James 2:18-20 The Rejoinder 20But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead?

  16. James 2:21-23 21Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? [Of course he was!]22Do you see that faith was working together with his works, and by works faith was made perfect? 23And the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness." And he was called the friend of God.

  17. Rom 4:2 Paul Agrees with James! For if Abraham was justified by works (and he was – 1st Class Conditional), he has something to boast about (and he does!), but not before God.
