sorry, I seem to be asking a lot of questions lately! :)

I asked an additional question on my previous thread but I guess it got buried so I put a link here.

Janeiro, The Church teaches that faith without works is nothing. To quote James 2:15-17 "15 What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister has nothing to wear and has no food for the day, 16 and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, keep warm, and eat well," but you do not give them the necessities of the body, what good is it? 17 So also faith of itself, if it does not have works, is dead. "
