FAITH AND WORKS

I Kings 8:39

Then hear thou in heaven thy dwelling place, and forgive, and do, and give to every man according to his ways , whose heart thou knowest; (for thou, even thou only, knowest the hearts of all the children of men;)

Job 34:11

For the work of a man shall he render unto him, and cause every man to find according to his ways .

Jeremiah 17:10

I the LORD search the heart, I try the reins, even to give every man according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings .

Jeremiah 32:19

Great in counsel, and mighty in work: for thine eyes are open upon all the ways of the sons of men: to give every one according to his ways, and according to the fruit of his doings:

Ezekiel 18:30

Therefore I will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, saith the Lord GOD. Repent, and turn yourselves from all your transgressions; so iniquity shall not be your ruin.

Hosea 12:2

The LORD hath also a controversy with Judah, and will punish Jacob according to his ways; according to his doings will he recompense him .

Habakkuk 2:4

Behold, his soul which is lifted up is not upright in him: but the just shall live by his faith.

Mark 9:24

And straightway the father of the child cried out, and said with tears, Lord, I believe; help thou mine unbelief.

Luke 17:5-6

[17:5] And the apostles said unto the Lord, Increase our faith. [17:6] And the Lord said, If ye had faith as a grain of mustard seed, ye might say unto this sycamine tree, Be thou plucked up by the root, and be thou planted in the sea; and it should obey you.

Luke 17:19

And he said unto him, Arise, go thy way: thy faith hath made thee whole.

Luke 18:42

And Jesus said unto him, Receive thy sight: thy faith hath saved thee.

Romans 3:27-28

[3:27] Where is boasting then? It is excluded. By what law? of works? Nay: but by the law of faith. [3:28] Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law .

Romans 4:1-4

[4:1] What shall we say then that Abraham our father, as pertaining to the flesh, hath found? [4:2] For if Abraham were justified by works, he hath whereof to glory; but not before God. [4:3] For what saith the scripture? Abraham believed God, and it was counted unto him for righteousness. [4:4] Now to him that worketh is the reward not reckoned of grace, but of debt.

I Corinthians 3:9

For we are labourers together with God: ye are God's husbandry, ye are God's building.

Galatians 2:16

Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Galatians 3:5-14

[3:5] He therefore that ministereth to you the Spirit, and worketh miracles among you, doeth he it by the works of the law, or by the hearing of faith? [3:6] Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. [3:7] Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham. [3:8] And the scripture, foreseeing that God would justify the heathen through faith, preached before the gospel unto Abraham, saying, In thee shall all nations be blessed. [3:9] So then they which be of faith are blessed with faithful Abraham. [3:10] For as many as are of the works of the law are under the curse: for it is written, Cursed is every one that continueth not in all things which are written in the book of the law to do them. [3:11] But that no man is justified by the law in the sight of God, it is evident: for, The just shall live by faith. [3:12] And the law is not of faith: but, The man that doeth them shall live in them.

See above

[3:13] Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth on a tree: [3:14] That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith .

James 2:14-26

[2:14] What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him? [2:15] If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food, [2:16] And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit? [2:17] Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone . [2:18] Yea, a man may say, Thou hast faith, and I have works: shew me thy faith without thy works, and I will shew thee my faith by my works. [2:19] Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble. [2:20] But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead ? [2:21] Was not Abraham our father justified by works, when he had offered Isaac his son upon the altar? [2:22] Seest thou how faith wrought with his works, and by works was faith made perfect?

See above

[2:23] And the scripture was fulfilled which saith, Abraham believed God, and it was imputed unto him for righteousness: and he was called the Friend of God. [2:24] Ye see then how that by works a man is justified, and not by faith only . [2:25] Likewise also was not Rahab the harlot justified by works, when she had received the messengers, and had sent them out another way? [2:26] For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.

I Peter 1:17

And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning here in fear:

Revelation 2:23

And I will kill her children with death; and all the churches shall know that I am he which searcheth the reins and hearts: and I will give unto every one of you according to your works.

Revelation 20:12-13

[20:12] And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is the book of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. [20:13] And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works.

Revelation 22:12

And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be .
