Faith Apart from Works?

The Strong's Exhaustive Concordance of the Bible, the KJV New Testament, in all cases in James the word translated "faith"  is defined as: (conviction of a religious truth or the truthfulness of God or a religious teacher especially reliance upon Christ for salvation: assurance, belief, believe, fidelity – 4102)  

 

James 2:20   

    Do you want to be shown you foolish person, that faith apart from works is useless? 

 

Apparently one cannot have the reliance upon Christ for salvation without doing something in response to Jesus instructions.
