James 2:17-26
In the same way, faith also, if it has no works, is dead, being by itself.But someone may well say,“ You have faith and I have works; show me your faith without the works, and I will show you my faith by my works.”You believe that God is one. You do well; the demons also believe, and shudder.But are you willing to acknowledge, you foolish person, that faith without works is useless?Was our father Abraham not justified by works when he offered up his son Isaac on the altar?You see that faith was working with his works, and as a result of the works, faith was perfected;and the Scripture was fulfilled which says,“ And Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,” and he was called a friend of God.You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.In the same way, was Rahab the prostitute not justified by works also when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way?For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead.

Hebrews 11:24-34
By faith Moses, when he had grown up, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh’s daughter,choosing rather to endure ill treatment with the people of God than to enjoy the temporary pleasures of sin,considering the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures of Egypt; for he was looking to the reward.By faith he left Egypt, not fearing the wrath of the king; for he persevered, as though seeing Him who is unseen.By faith he kept the Passover and the sprinkling of the blood, so that the destroyer of the firstborn would not touch them.By faith they passed through the Red Sea as through dry land; and the Egyptians, when they attempted it, were drowned.By faith the walls of Jericho fell down after the Israelites had marched around them for seven days.By faith the prostitute Rahab did not perish along with those who were disobedient, after she had welcomed the spies in peace.And what more shall I say?
