James 2:16 in Context — James 2
14 Hermanos míos, ¿qué aprovechará si alguno dice que tiene fe, y no tiene obras? ¿Podrá la fe salvarle?
15 Y si el hermano ó la hermana están desnudos, y tienen necesidad del mantenimiento de cada día,
16 Y alguno de vosotros les dice: Id en paz, calentaos y hartaos; pero no les diereis las cosas que son necesarias para el cuerpo: ¿qué aprovechará?
17 Así también la fe, si no tuviere obras, es muerta en sí misma.
18 Pero alguno dirá: Tú tienes fe, y yo tengo obras: muéstrame tu fe sin tus obras, y yo te mostraré mi fe por mis obras.
