James Bible Study Faith = Do

As you read through the whole book of James certain common themes begin to emerge: 1. He calls them my brothers very very often. 2. He's not too impressed with rich people. 3. He talks about a new kind of law: the law of liberty. 4. He expects people of faith to be doing something. 5. He thinks talking is serious business. 6. He accuses them of thinking they are something great when they are not. 7. He advises prayer when any need arises. As you read you realize that James had a few things to say...and I think he could barely get them on paper because of all the other things he kept thinking of like sending the kid off to college or off to camp - and don't forget this...and don't forget this....and don't forget this....
