Yes Samoria,I believe James clearly contradicted the teaching of Paul. That James taught that we are justified by faith and works as opposed to faith apart from works - Rom.4.

James only supports what Paul says. He is just saying that works are evidence of faith, not the substance of it.

Thanks for coming Samoria, good to have you.

This is untrue. First point - how was the condition of Gen.15:6 met: By faith apart from works Rom.4:3-6? Or by faith and works James 2:21,22,23?
