Lesson 14: An Illustration Of Response (James 1:22-25) Series

Contributed by John Lowe on Mar 26, 2021

The “perfect law of liberty” is not the Mosaic Law; it is the law of grace. James does not talk about this law in the same sense that Paul does. When Paul talks about the law, he is talking about the Mosaic Law. When James talks about the law, it is the law of Faith.
