Paul vs. James?: Justified by Faith Alone with R.C. Sproul

A video published by Ligonier Ministries on September 15th, 2021

What role do our good works play in our salvation? In Romans 3:28 28 We reckon therefore that a man is justified by faith apart from the works of the law. , the Apostle Paul teaches that “one is justified by faith apart from works of the law.” But James says that “faith apart from works is dead” ( James 2:26 26 For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, even so faith apart from works is dead. ). Can these seemingly contradictory passages of Scripture be reconciled? In this message, R.C. Sproul examines the writings of Paul and James in context to help us understand the relationship between faith and good works in the life of a Christian. This message is from Dr. Sproul’s 10-part teaching series Justified by Faith Alone. Learn more: https://www.ligonier.org/learn/series/justified-by-faith-alone
