    Faith And Love James' Style

    Contributed by Greg Nance on Mar 7, 2015
     | 3,430 views

    James has a lot to tell us about faith. His simple, straight forward message challenges us and instructs us in character building God's way. This is a summary of some of the things James tells us as we prepare to enter chapter three.

    The theme of James is captured in the first chapter, verses James 1:2-4 (read). He then discusses trials and faith throughout the rest of the letter. Some of these trials come from without, but some are as near as the members of our own bodies, i.e. our tongues. Someone pointed out that James ...read more

    Joy has often been defined as happiness; as a feeling; true, Biblical Joy has more to do with Faith than it has to do with feeling.

    Biblical Joy (James 1:2-4; NKJV) “My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, [3] knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
