Discuss James 1 Page 35

If it is good and if it is perfect then it came from God. I must take to heart that He said that the gift is both good and perfect. If one lacks another then it is not from God . It has to be in the light for God is light. Also there is no turning or variableness with Him. He does not change from one thing to another. God is so GOOOOOG !!!!

HAPPY OUR LORD BIRTH DAY,It came and gone so many people might think But HIS MARCY IS FOR EVER.To all mankind our achievement is not due to hard work nor knowledge and understanding is only for HIS MARCY WITH INFINITE LOVE

Endure the temptation. Do good. Give no place to sin. Ask for and seek wisdom in faith.

Hello Marie You have to do more than just believe. You have to follow Acts 2 38 in order to be saved. The devils believe and tremble, James 2 19 "Thou believest that there is one God thou doest well the devils also believe, and tremble ". We have to go one step further and actually put our faith into works. Because faith without works is dead, James 2 26 "For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also ".

Only Believe!!!

thank God for Jesus did open the doors of faith and love

I must ask in faith I cannot be wishie washie about asking God for a thing. I must be determined to receive what God says a lot of the times what God says is contrary to my thinking so I must be willing to accept what He says and go with it. God will back me with His word all the time. I cannot ask for anything better than that !!!!!

We must have confidence that GOD will provide what we hope for in his time.

Faith is the key to GOD Mighty hand onto our life faith will bring unconditional Blessings of GOD and also doors will be open onto us just by Faith people of GOD

Read Hebrew chapter 11 verses 1 to 30, Faith is a no ending hope to come true.

James explains it perfectly God does not tempt any man, every man is tempted when he is drawn away by his own lusts, and enticed, and if you let it have it 's way it conceives sin, we are under the curse since Adam we half to have faith and live with it.

Hello Kandyse I would like to add to my 2 part response. I do not know if they will allow part 2 to come out. However, when you do not know what to pray for follow Jesus Christ instructions on how to pray Matthew 6 6 thru 13. In addition to this pray if you are not saved ask God to save you. If you are saved according to Acts 2 38 ask God to keep you saved.

Part 1 of 2 Hello Kandyse I do not know if they will allow this to be posted. There are four types of fasting. One is an assembly called fast. This is where the leader of the church calls for a fast. Joel 1 14 is an example of this. There is a group fast. This is where a small gathering may come together and fast and pray for various things. Paul and Barnabas give an example Acts 14 23. Then you have the fast that a wife and husband consent to for either the both of them or one or the other. In other words, you have to get permission to go on a fast from your spouse so that Satan does not tempt you, 1 Corinthians 7 5. Then there is the private fast. This is where a lot of people fall short. They tell everybody they are fasting. They show a sad continence. They already have their reward. Jesus Christ gave instructions on how to fast, Matthew 6 16 thru 18.

The word of God is life and that life in us cannot grow without having faith and believing on the righteousness of the word that can transforms to be hearers and doers of the word.

I am fasting and need some insight on what to read to help me along dealing with temptation and stress

Hello Jim Hebrews 11 1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. James 2 17 Even so faith, if it hath not works, is dead, being alone. You have to have the Holy Ghost and follow Acts 2 38 the salvation plan. This is the action that you take after you believe that Jesus Christ is both Lord and Savior. The devils believe and tremble, James 2 19 Thou believest that there is one God thou doest well the devils also believe, and tremble.

The word of the Eternal is just and true and obedience to it will guarantee salvation. But blind faith and many words of praise are useless if not followed by righteous action

I believe one should not waver but trust God and He will not forsake us

God is alive his voice is still powerfull he realy loves us

I believe that the Word of God is true for God knows the ways of man therefore,He addresses the things which are inside of man so that he does not try to get over. If anybody needs help it 's man.

not to err in trials not to haveattitudes trials brings paitence and growth God is ready to elevate

If anyone lacks wisdom knowledge intelligence,just simply ask God. Any request for knowledge is a stepping stone to finding the truth of or in all knowledge. He promises here that you will not be reproached, upbraideth not chastised, 'put down '. The promise here is you will receive the knowledge that you request. He doesn 't say he 's going to help someone just because they are christian or they might be a religous leader either. This is for everyone that needs help. That is reflected in the surrounding verses.

I believe the Holy Spirit is the engrafted implanted Word, referred to in James 1 21, receive with meekness the engrafted word, which is able to save your souls. The phrase save your souls, in this context, does not mean to save from eternal condemnation. It means to sanctify. Thus the child of God is commanded to receive i.e, accept the engrafted Word the Holy Spirit Who teaches us the written Word and impresses upon our heart truths that we need in order to grow. In other words, He sanctifies us through the Word. Jesus prayed, Sanctify them through thy truth thy word is truth John 17 17 .

We ought to worship God in truth and spirit by being obedient to his statues and expressing his love to others.

we lust after what we love or desire to have this verse is telling those who will fall into sin due to their lost and then try to attribute it to God that is not so let me just say u ate tempted by your affections and or priorities.

James ' emphasis on sanctification good works seems at odds with the widely accepted idea that salvation is by " justification alone " to the extent that Lutherans have moved the book of James to the latter sections of their Bible. So, salvation according to James is both justification and sanctification ?

By going through diverse temptations, in it God make man to become a perfect person, more faithful, well spiritually strong 1 peter 5 10 , and after you have through with it, it will give you great ability to handle your forthcoming glory which God prepare for you. and you will become a mature person that can able to stand for high responsibility.

Falling into temptation is never on purpose. Your strive to please God must be intentional Where you lack wisdom you should ask God,He gives it freely.You can 't go wrong. When you fall in temptation it let 's YOU know what 's in you. Then there is no debate whether or not you are a certain way. Then you can ask God for the stability you need to please Him. Therefore the trial does make you strong in the long run. You either want to please God or you don 't! That 's where you find out whether you are double minded or not. We are imperfect but we shouldn 't be doubleminded.

AL...HI! A double minded man is someone who is double minded. Someone who wavers back and forth. They are uncertain and divided. What it basically means is they feel a certain way about something one day and the next day they have changed their mind about it already and never really getting around to establishing their true faith and beliefs. I sure hope that helps. You should get you a Strongs Concordance and use it to understand the bible better. It has cleared up so many things for me. Such a helpful tool for the serious bible student. You must use it in conjunction with the KJV bible though. I don 't recommend any other bible anyways! God bless!

This means to me means faith is a test from god and to god wants to see if u have faith in what he can do god bless i have FAITH n him good n bad situations my story tells it all my faith
