1. Dead Faith (vv. 14 – 20)
   1. Paul and James are not standing face-to-face confronting each other; they're standing back-to-back fighting two common enemies (in the church).
   2. Empty confession
   3. Empty Compassion (vv.15 – 17)
   4. Empty Conviction (vv. 18 – 20)
2. Living Faith (vv. 21 – 26)
   1. Abraham and Rahab
      1. Abraham was a Jew, Rahab was a Gentile
      2. Abraham was a man, Rahab was a woman
      3. Abraham was a patriarch, Rahab was a Prostitute
      4. Abraham was a friend of God, Rahab belonged to a people who were an enemy of God
   2. They are both justified by their works.

“In the eyes of God you are justified by faith because when you claim to be a Christian God looks at your heart...” “But in the eyes of other people, how do they know you are a believer?”
