James 2:17 says that "faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead", while Romans 3:28 states that "a person is justified by faith apart from works of the law". Using the distinction between (i) works of the moral law and (ii) works of love motivated by genuine faith, state the doctrine that reconciles these two passages, describing the role of faith and works.

Answer Options

Correct Answer A. Justification is by faith, but genuine faith necessarily produces works of love - faith is the root, works are its fruit.
B. Works of the law alone justify a person; faith is optional and merely supplemental.
C. Faith and works are unrelated; justification depends on the moral law alone.
D. Justification is by works, and faith merely follows - works are the root, faith is the fruit.
Correct Answer
A
Correct Option:
Justification is by faith, but genuine faith necessarily produces works of love - faith is the root, works are its fruit.
