The Apostle Paul and James are not teaching contrary doctrines of salvation. Paul addresses the cause of our salvation (faith), while James addresses the result of our salvation (works). From both writers, we gain a comprehensive or holistic view of the work of God in salvation.

The evidence of genuine conversion is not sinless perfection, but a life marked by genuine repentance and confession. The one who professes faith in Christ and yet lives in sin with little or no brokenness or divine discipline should be greatly concerned.

The proof of conversion is not the absence of warfare with the flesh, but the contrary. One of the great evidences that we have truly been born again is that our friendship with the flesh has been denounced and we have declared war against it without any intention of a truce.
