26 Minutes; talking about James. With introduction of when the letter was written, which is around 49 Ad before the Jewish Council in Acts 15 was established.

Hi Matt,
James is probably the most notable book on reasoning about Christian works. So many people have been misled into thinking that a person only has to believe in God or Jesus to be saved. Jesus' brother James makes it very clear that faith which is essential part of our worship, must be combined with obedience in the teachings of the new covenant. An easy to read short book so beneficial to us Christians.

Nice subject to bring up sir.

Faith/belief without confirmation through actions and demonstrations exposes a person lack of faith/belief. Faith and belief must be put into action such that others see what it is that you have faith/believe in and why you have that faith/belief.

Shalom

PS: - Our salvation is based on what was available for all of mankind from the beginning of man, but with the process for redemption permanently changed, and not on God's refreshing of the Kingdom of Priests, a Holy Nation and His possession among the Nations Covenant in our near future with the Houses of Judah and Israel.

Amen to that sir

There was no need for salvation, until after the sin of Adam.
