St. Jude: The WORDS of JESUS' BROTHER (Jude 1:17, 20-23)

"But you must remember, believed, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ...build yourselves up on your most holy faith, pray in the Holy Spirit; keep yourselves in the love of God; wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life. And convince some, who doubt; save some, by snatching them out of the fire; on some have mercy with fear, hating even the garment spotted by the flesh" (Jude 1:17, 20-23).

Is One Justified by FAITH & WORKS or by FAITH ALONE? (James 2:24/ Galatians 2:16)

Is One Justified by FAITH & WORKS or by FAITH ALONE? (James 2:24/ Galatians 2:16)

Is one justified by faith & works as the Lord's brother James teaches or by Faith Alone as Paul teaches? This is one of the major points of contention between the Catholic and Protestant faiths. "You that man is justified by works and not by faith alone" (James 2:24) "Yet who know that a man is NOT justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ, and not by works of the law, because by works of the law shall no one be justified" (Galatians 2:16).
