Good works demonstrate that one has been saved through faith (fruit of faith) and will receive eternal life and evil works (fruit of unbelief) demonstrate that one has not been saved through faith and will not receive eternal life. Everyone who does good is a description of ALL saved believers. Everyone who does evil is a description of ALL lost unbelievers. The context of Romans 2 relates to the judgment of God and when judgment is the subject, the stress is on works as a manifestation of one's faith (or lack thereof), not simply on faith from which these works follow. Make no mistake, we are not saved by works (Ephesians 2:8,9).
Faith only - per James - is not genuine faith but an empty profession of faith, a dead faith (James 2:14-20). Faith that trusts only in Christ for salvation is alive in Christ/created in Christ Jesus UNTO/FOR good works (Ephesians 2:5-10). Not the same faith. One is alive and one is dead. The works or lack of works bears witness to this.
You just gave a description of those who are lost and those who are saved. Are those who obey righteousness, obey the truth, do good, accomplish this from a lost condition or a saved condition? Do lost unbelievers or saved believers obey righteousness, obey the truth, do good throughout their life?
Paul is giving a description of those who are saved and will receive eternal life and those who are lost and will not receive eternal life. Again, faith only - per James - is an empty profession of faith, a dead faith, not a living faith that is alive in Christ and results in obedience/doing good.
Again, James is not using the word "justified" here to mean "accounted as righteous" but is "shown to be righteous." James is discussing the proof of faith
(says-claims to have faith but has no works/I will show you my faith by my works), not the initial act of being accounted as righteous with God (Romans 4:2-3).
FALSE. In James 2:21, notice closely that James does not say that Abraham's work of offering up Isaac resulted in God's accounting Abraham as righteous. No! The accounting of Abraham's faith as righteousness was made in Genesis 15:6,
many years before his work of offering up Isaac recorded in Genesis 22. The work of Abraham did not have some kind of intrinsic merit to save his soul, but it
proved or manifested the genuineness of his faith. This is the sense in which Abraham was by works "shown to be righteous."
God is said to have been
justified by those who were baptized by John the Baptist (Luke 7:29). This act pronounced or declared God to be righteous. It did not make him righteous. The basis or ground for the pronouncement was the fact that God
IS righteous. Notice that the NIV reads, "acknowledged that God's way was right.." The ESV reads, "they declared God just.." This is the sense in which God was justified,
"shown to be righteous" and it's the same with Abraham.
Matthew 11:19 "The Son of Man came eating and drinking, and they say, 'Behold, a gluttonous man and a drunkard, a friend of tax-gatherers and sinners!' Yet wisdom is
justified/vindicated/shown to be right by her deeds.
The harmony of Romans 4:2 and James 2:21 is seen in the differing ways that Paul and James use the term "justified." Paul, when he uses the term, refers to the
legal (judicial) act of God by which He accounts the sinner righteous. James, however is using the term to describe those who would
prove or show the genuineness of their faith by the works that they do. James is discussing the proof of faith (James 2:21), not the initial act of being accounted as righteous with God (Romans 4:2-3).
We obey from the heart when we believe the gospel (Romans 1:16; 10:16). For with the heart one believes unto righteousness (Romans 10:10) BEFORE any works of obedience that follow are accomplished. We are justified by faith (Romans 5:1). Good works follow justification/salvation and are the fruit of salvation but not the root of it.
Faith is not no particular reason. The object of our faith is Christ's finished work of redemption, but that is not good enough for you so you turn to supplements "water and works" in a vain effort to help Jesus save you. How long will you refuse to repent and believe the gospel?
Amen!
Where do you see the word CONTINUES TO NOT? Is that the Alexander Campbell translation? 1 John 3:10 - In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest/evident/obvious: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.
Just the opposite. John's words make it IMPOSSIBLE for one to practice righteousness unless he is a child of God. Children of the devil DO NOT PRACTICE RIGHTEOUSNESS. Your self righteous true colors are really showing. 
I NEVER said that a righteous person continues to do unrighteousness. 1 John 3:9 - No one who is born of God practices sin, because His seed abides in him; and he cannot sin, because he is born of God. Those who are born of God practice righteousness and not sin (1 John 3:10). Does that sound like continues to do unrighteousness to you?
False. Contrary to works righteousness, man must first be accounted as righteous through faith in order to do righteous works. You have it backwards because you teach works salvation, which is no salvation at all.
There is no category for one who believes but does no works because that is an oxymoron. John 3:18 - He who believes in Him is not condemned, but he who does not believe is condemned already.. Contradiction to Romans 2:6? Good deeds show (are the demonstrative evidence) that one has been saved from the penalty of sin through faith (Justification) and will be saved from the presence of sin (Glorification). Evil deeds show (are the demonstrative evidence) that one has not been saved from the penalty of sin (Justification) and will not be saved from the presence of sin (Glorfication).
