14 What good does it do, my brothers, if someone claims to have faith but does not have any works? This kind of faith cannot save him, can it?
15 Suppose a brother or sister does not have any clothes or daily food
16 and one of you tells them, "Go in peace! Stay warm and eat heartily." If you do not provide for their bodily needs, what good does it do?
17 In the same way, faith by itself, if it does not have any works, is dead.
