Does James hold a gospel that teaches justification by faith with works while Paul’s gospel teaches justification by faith without works? Because James is so strong on works ...read more

I would like to read it from Eugene Peterson’s paraphrase (The Message) this morning and then we will look at 3 sections individually from the NLT version. James 2:14-26The Message ...read more
