Question 39 GCE_MODEL_QUESTIONS_VOL1 • 2022 • CHRISTIAN_RELIGIOUS_STUDIES • objective

A theologian argues that genuine faith necessarily produces works, citing James 2:14‑26 and contrasting it with Paul's teaching in Romans 3:28. Construct a logical outline (in three numbered points) that reconciles these passages, identifying the hidden premise that resolves the apparent tension. Then, using this outline, determine whether a person who professes belief in Christ but never performs charitable acts can be considered justified according to the combined biblical teaching. Provide a brief justification for your conclusion.

Answer Options

A. Yes; the hidden premise allows that belief alone suffices, making the person justified despite lacking charitable acts.
B. No; although works are beneficial, a mere profession of faith without works still results in justification.
C. Yes; works are not required for justification, so the person is considered justified by faith alone.
Correct Answer D. No; without works the professed faith is not genuine, so the person is not truly justified.
Correct Answer
D
Correct Option:
No; without works the professed faith is not genuine, so the person is not truly justified.
