11.22.2014 New Testament: Jam 4.8–10

To read the Bible in a year, read James 4 on November 22, In the year of our Lord 2014

By Don Ruhl

Many Christians have told me that their favorite Bible Book is James. James does not soften the message from God, but presents it boldly, telling us just what we need to hear, as in the following,

Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. Lament and mourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up (James 4.8–10). 

That is not hard to understand. Therefore, let us do what he said!
