Best Answer
A:Paul's epistles and Ephesians consistently demonstrate that God's ideas about salvation are unchanging: they are by faith alone:
  • Romans 3:28: "Therefore we conclude that a man is justified by faith without the deeds of the law."
  • Romans 5:1-2: "Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ: By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we stand, and rejoice in hope of the glory of God."
  • Galatians 3:2: "That the blessing of Abraham might come on the Gentiles through Jesus Christ; that we might receive the promise of the Spirit through faith. "
  • Ephesians 2:8-9: "For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: Not of works, lest any man should boast."

The Epistle of James consistently demonstrates that God's ideas about salvation are unchanging: they are by faith and works, not just one alone:

  • James 2:14: "What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?"
  • James 2:17: " Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone."
  • James 2:20: "But wilt thou know, O vain man, that faith without works is dead? "
  • James 2:26: "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also."

Additional thought:

James 1:17: "...Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. "(NIV)

(Malachi 3:6)
