Warning against Prejudice:
•Never treat people according to their outer appearance.
•It defines as Making Judgements based on evil motives.
•Love your neighbour as yourself.
•Judging according to their appearance defines that you are guilty of sin, and the law condemns you as a law breaker.
•Speak and Act as people who will be Judged by the law that sets us free.
•God will not show Mercy when he Judge people.

Faith and Actions:
James 2 verse 14 says
"What good it is,my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him?"
•If someone is in lack of food and clothes and you say them " Go in peace ,be warmed and filled" without giving them anything; how much does that help them in anyway?
And verse 17 says
So also faith by itself , if it does not have works is dead.
•It is easy to say you have works,but i have faith
What if someone asks "show me your faith through works or apart from your works" and they say "I will show you my faith by my works".

Examples:
Abraham:Verse 21 says,
Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered up his son Issac on the altar?
And Verse 23 says,
"Abraham believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness", and he was called a friend of God.
Rahab:Verse 25 says,
And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she recieved the messengers and sent them out by another way?
Conclusion:
Verse 24 says,
You see that a person is justified by Works not by Faith alone.
Verse 26 says,
For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also the faith apart from works is Dead.
