James clearly states that faith alone is not sufficient, and we have the reported words of Jesus saying that upon his return in power, each man shall be judged according to their deeds.

The attempt at a resolution does not resolve the contradiction. Paul went his own way, a separate path to that of Peter and the other disciples. Paul had never met Jesus, nor was he aware of the things written in the later Gospels.

“Was not our ancestor Abraham considered righteous for what he did when he offered his son Isaac on the altar? You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that says, ‘Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness,’ and he was called God’s friend. You see that a person is justified by what he does and not by faith alone.” —James 2:21-24 (NIV)

Endorsement of works;

“Jesus answered, ‘If you want to be perfect, go, sell your possessions and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven. Then come, follow me.'”
—Matthew 19:21 (NIV)
