A believer argues that salvation is by faith alone, citing Ephesians 2:8‑9. Another points to James 2:24. If the church defines "justification" as being declared righteous before God, which statement best reconciles the two passages?

C. Justification depends on predestination, making human response irrelevant; thus the passages cannot be harmonized.
