James 1:1 to 27
James a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad greeting. Acts 12:17

My brethren count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations: Acts 5:41 2 Pet. 1:6 various trials

Knowing this that the trying of your faith worketh patience. Rom 5:3-5 testing produces

But let patience have her perfect work that ye may be perfect and entire wanting nothing.

If any of you lack wisdom let him ask of God that giveth to all men liberally and upbraided not and it shall be given him. 3:17

But let him ask in faith nothing wavering for he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.

For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

A double minded man is unstable in all his way. 4:8

Let the brother of low degree rejoice in that he is exalted.

But the rich in that he is made low because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away.

For the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat but it withereth the grass and the flower thereof falleth and the grace of the fashion of it perisheth so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways (beautiful appearance)

Blessed is the man that endureth temptation for when he is tried he shall receive the crown of life which the Lord hath promised to them that love him. 5:11

Let no man say when he is tempted I am tempted of God for God cannot be tempted with evil neither tempteth he any man.

But every man is tempted when he is drawn away of his own lust and enticed. Desires

Then when lust hath conceived it bringeth forth sin and sin when it is finished bringeth forth death. Is. 59:4 (Rom. 5:12; 6:23)

Do not err my beloved brethren. (Be deceived)

Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above and cometh down from the Father of lights with whom is no variableness neither shadow of turning. (John 3:27 Num 23:19 variation)
Of his own will begat he us with the word of truth that we should be a kind of firstfruits
Of his creatures. 2 Tim 2:15 Heb. 12:23

Wherefore my beloved brethren let every man be swift to hear slow to speak slow to wrath. (Prov 10:19 Prov 14:17; 16:32)

For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God (does not produce)

Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity of naughtiness and receive with meekness the engrafted word which is able to save your souls. (abundance)

But be ye doers of the word and not hearers only deceiving your own selves. (2:14-20)

For if any be a hearer of the word and not a doer he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass. (Luke 6:47 mirror)

For he beholdeth himself and goeth his way and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.

But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty and continueth therein he being not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work this man shall be blessed in his deed. (Gal 2:4; 6:2; 1 Pet 2:16)

If any man among you seem to be religious and bridleth not his tongue but deceiveth his own heart this man’s religion is vain.

Pure religion and undefiled before God and the Father is this to visit the fatherless and windows in their affiction and to keep himself unspotted from the world
