What doth it profit, my brethren, though a man say he hath faith, and have not works? can faith save him?
|
If a brother or sister be naked, and destitute of daily food,
|
And one of you say unto them, Depart in peace, be ye warmed and filled; notwithstanding ye give them not those things which are needful to the body; what doth it profit?
