James: The New Testament Proverbs

Faith without works cannot be called faith.  It is dead and a dead faith is worse than no faith at all.  Faith must work; it must produce; it must be visible.  Verbal faith is not enough; mental faith is insufficient.  Faith must move into action.  Throughout his epistle to Jewish believers, James integrates rue faith and everyday practical experience by stressing that true faith "works."  It endures trials; it obeys God's Word; it produces doers; it harbors no prejudice; it controls the tongue; it acts wisely; it provides the power to resist the devil; it waits patiently for the coming of the Lord (Wilkinson and Boa, Talk Thru The Bible).   Join Michael Easley as he teaches an overview of the book of James from his series The Big Book: Cover to Cover.
