    "But He giveth more grace" (James 4:6).

    THE GRACE OF SUBMISSION. James 4:1-10. James has been contrasting the ‘earthly, sensual, devilish’ wisdom that engenders ‘envying and strife’ (cf. James 3:14-16) with the ‘peaceable’ wisdom of God (cf. James 3:17-18). JAMES 4:1. With a startling suddenness, James asks, “From whence come wars ...read more

    Prayer changes the course of events, changes the nature of circumstances and changes me.

    Most of us treat prayer like the five-year old. One mother writes, “As my five year old son and I were headed to McDonald’s one day, we passed a car accident. Usually when we see something terrible like that, we say a prayer for those who might be hurt, so I pointed and said to my son, “We should ...read more

     | 2,881 views

    James offers several cures for conflict. We think the problem in conflict is the other person. But James says the cure begins with us submitting to God, drawing near to God, resisting the devil and to stop judging others.

    Simon Peter and Andrew, James and John (the sons of Zebedee), and the other James and Thaddeus. Why choose sets of brothers? What's with the FAMILY thing? Wouldn't there have been A CONFLICT OF INTEREST? Not when Jesus is leading.

    Part 3 - Matthew 10:2-4 - YOU ARE ASKING FOR TROUBLE CHOOSING ME! I have always been a bit of a loner. I was not the sort of person you wanted in your team. I didn't fit.

    Doing Good

     | 10,788 views

    Galatians has a word or two on good deeds that sound a lot like the message of James. While James doesn't focus on the Spirit, and Paul centers there, the echoes of the faith are heard in both. It is impressive to note the parallels.

    Last week we finished our study in the book of James. James was all about words and works of the faithful Christian. Our walk and our talk express our faith and our relationship with God. Just as faith without works is dead, James 2:26, James makes it clear that claiming to be religious without ...read more
