We are not saved by our good works but we are saved to do good works.
Good works are not the cause of our salvation, but the fruit of our salvation.

Well said!
And I am one more brother who has learned to treasure James since leaving the LC. And let me say further, that those who elevate the writings of Paul above the rest of the N.T. are some of the least healthy Christians.
