Imagine a symbolic representation of James 2:14 -17 passage in the Bible. Picture a scene where two individuals stand representatively in a space. One person, a Caucasian male, represents faith without deeds, and just giving away empty comforting words. He stands tall with an open empty hand gesture towards a second figure, a Hispanic female representing the mentioned brother or sister, scantily dressed and reaching out, indicative of hunger and need for clothing. Words such as 'Go in peace; keep warm and well fed' appear in the air between them yet there's a distinct absence of action from his part. The scene vibrantly captures the integrity of faith through display of deeds, not just words, represented in the style of early 20th century figurative art, made with digital medium.

James 2:14-17 - "What good is it, my brothers and sisters, if someone claims to have faith but has no deeds? Can such faith save them? Suppose a brother or a sister is without clothes and daily food. If one of you says to them, 'Go in peace; keep warm and well fed,' but does nothing about their physical needs, what good is it? In the same way, faith by itself, if it is not accompanied by action, is dead."
