James 2:14-16 New Century Version (NCV)

14. My brothers and sisters, if people say they have faith, but do nothing, their faith is worth nothing. Can faith like that save them?

15. A brother or sister in Christ might need clothes or food.

16. If you say to that person, “God be with you! I hope you stay warm and get plenty to eat,” but you do not give what that person needs, your words are worth nothing.
