Nope. When somebody says that we should believe him, means that we
must do what he said.
So, I reckon that it is instruction to do something, not to believe
only. We do not believe, we would not do it, right?

So, according to James, it is still works that count, not the words only.

I do not say any disharmony here, there should be some possible
