Some scholars[who?] believe that Paul and James do not contradict each other but speak about different questions.[118] They assert that the perspective of Paul is different from, and complementary to, that of James - "When Paul claims that one is justified by faith alone, apart from works, he is referring to works that precede salvation. Conversely, when James insists on works as necessary to justification, he has in view works that follow and validate salvation."[119] Paul states in various passages that works have to follow faith (Titus 2:11-12, Ephesians 2:10, Romans 6:13, Galatians 5:13, etc.).
