One of the most vital questions in [[Bible|biblical]] [[theology]] is the relationship between [[faith]] and good works.
The biblical Book of James indicates: "What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has [[faith]] but does not have works? Can faith save him? If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, “Depart in peace, be warmed and filled,” but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit? Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead." (James 2:14-26 NKJV).
The [[Saint Paul|Apostle Paul]] wrote: "For we are his workmanship, created in [[Jesus Christ|Christ Jesus]] for good works, which [[God]] prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them." - [[Saint Paul|St. Paul]], Ephesians 2: 10 ESV
