EkaJokobe 2:19-26

Wena uyakholwa ukuthi uNkulunkulu munye; wenza kahle; namademoni ayakholwa, athuthumele. Kodwa uyathanda yini ukwazi wena muntu oyize, ukuthi ukholo olungelamisebenzi lufile? U-Abrahama ubaba akalungisiswanga yini ngemisebenzi, lapho enikela u-Isaka indodana yakhe e-altare na? Uyabona ukuthi ukukholwa kwasebenza kanye nemisebenzi yakhe, nokuthi ukholo lwapheleliswa ngemisebenzi? Kwase kugcwaliseka umbhalo othi: U-Abrahama wakholwa nguNkulunkulu, kwabalelwa kuye ukuthi kungukulunga, wabizwa ngokuthi uMngane kaNkulunkulu. Niyabona-ke ukuthi umuntu ulungisiswa ngemisebenzi, kungengokukholwa kuphela. Ngokunjalo noRahabi isifebe akalungisiswanga yini ngemisebenzi, esezamukele izithunywa, esezikhiphe ngenye indlela? Ngokuba njengalokhu umzimba ngaphandle komoya ufile, kanjalo nokukholwa ngaphandle kwemisebenzi kufile.
