Description:"You can't trust the Bible - it's full of hundreds of contradictions." REALLY? Just because the critic mindlessly declares it so? Don't be so fast to believe everything you hear! In this book Dr. Jason Lisle examines 420 claims of Bible contradictions and sets the record straight. Contradiction #139 Was Abraham justified by faith or by works? Romans 4:2 - says by faith VS. James 2:21 - says by works. Bifurcation fallacy. Abraham was justified both by faith and by works (James 2:24, 26). To "justify" means either to be in right moral standing or to show that one is (morally) in right standing. Abraham was justified by faith before God since God knows all things - including Abraham's faith (James 2:23). God sees our hearts (1 Samuel 16:7), so we are justified before God by our faith alone, which God can see. But men cannot see another man's faith. They only see the outward works that follow from inward faith. Therefore, Abraham was justified before men by the works that followed from his faith, since men cannot see faith but can see works. James explicitly teaches this (James 2:18 26).We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
