There is a ton of confusion in the world today, I don't doubt that for a second. Many people think that the bible is authority for instance, when the real authority is God, writing on the minds and hearts of those whom are his. People are his, are faithful and ultimately they love. That is all...

I dont do drugs anymore. Thank you for the scripture.

Verily, people have to be discerning, in what they choose to do, when it comes to themselves subjectively. I believe the choice to love people (even if you do have to call the law, on someone whom may need to be arrested.) Jesus forgave his own murderers. It's only possible in and through...

You kind of get what I am saying. I'm speaking of judgement as though one is God. What do you make of that? I get what you are saying, and I believe there are times when the police need to be called. People sometimes live in a land where they are to just point out and judge people. Like...

Im speaking of judgment as though one is God. My mother for a long time told me I need to get off drugs because she knew the drugs were not doing anything good to me. She wasn't judging me as she was God. She was making judgements based on my health and well being, for me to stop doing drugs...

There is nothing wrong with judging. The problem is when you become judgmental as like that of an executioner. Judging people as though though one is God. There is nothing wrong with the police integrating people and forming a conclusive judgment, as a murderer or a child predator is deemed to...

Martin Luther was openly critical of James, and he wondered whether the epistle belonged in our Bibles, but he never formally proposed it should be removed. He did, however, suggest it be thrown out of schools: “We should throw the epistle of James out of this school, for it doesn’t amount to...

Hey Verily, thanks for sharing. There is a lot people can learn from reading the book of James. That is a great thing in my opinion. James writes well, but some consider him unfashionable, and not really looked at as far as his writings. He encourages us to ask God for wisdom but not to be...

The book of James is great. Some people dismiss it though, in reality. Such a great book of spiritual benefit to people today.

Verily, Jesus also came into the world to save it, and those who don't believe are already condemned and that people loved the darkness more than the light. I believe that making judgements is not the problem, but what is the problem.

When I think about this, the bible speaks about us being in Christ, and God being in us. We have a choice to react by the fleshly means, or the spiritual ways of the Spirit of Christ with in us, which causes only good. Sucks your church has division, Bob but that is nothing new to me as we see...

Because humans are human, Bob. Many people blame the devil, without looking at themselves. I do indeed believe that Satan has been done away with as the bible proclaims.

Yes, Bob, but I think that Faith must come first. Then a change of mind comes after that. God will start writing on the hearts and minds of those whom are his.

Verily, let's look at the whole, before this chapter James talks about controlling the tongue, and where wisdom comes from.

Yes, Bob. There are times where we discern. We make judgements that hey perhaps smoking is not good for me, or whatever it may be. In the end though, I believe what is being spoken about by James is when it comes to looking at people and just making judgements about them. So I believe what you...

What gives us the right? Do you believe that people have the right to judge other people as though they are God?

In the face of this, that doesn't mean you can not love God, and love your neighbor as yourself... all in Christ because without him. We are simply unable to do so. And its by faithfully looking to God, that the Lord Yeshua, his death, burial, and resurrection. Allows us the ability because of...

Sometimes the lie which can come from ourselves is that our "reputation" matters. The truth is that suffering in the ways of Christ, means having no "reputation" at all. If our reputation matters, in the eyes of God it doesn't. Because Jesus made himself made himself of no reputation. If...

Amigo, thank you for your trying to help. I find help in going to God, not to men and what they may think. I forgive you, and I hope the best for you in your life man, in Christ. I am just saying that people whom believe they need to correct everyone on their sins, and yet they themselves are...

Amigo, whatever you want. Peace to you.
