[@giancarloabreu2523]

@@JesusLordOfLords455 it does not. They go hand in hand. It is not works that saves us, but faith. However, genuine faith leads to a renewed person, which leads to obedience, which leads naturally to works. It’s simply the natural course of living your life in surrendering to God. Instead of being “my works saved me” it is “because of what you’ve already done for me, I will do my works.” The lack of that change just blatantly shows that nothing has changed for the person, and that they merely made an in the moment emotion driven choice, or they think that just saying they believe will save them, but that’s not the case. Remember that Jesus said “depart from me, for I never knew you” to people who called Him teacher, not unbelievers.

[@blackoctopus5182]

​@@josephbelov6212 literally the whole letter of James oppose to the teachings of Paul. Paul teaches the message of faith, and just with faith you'll get salvation, faith alone without work. But James teaches to work and follow the will of god that were taught by Jesus, and says that faith alone is like no faith, to have faith you have to do the works. And (Matthew 7:21-23) perfectly describes teachers as paul and their followers. "Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven. On that day many will say to me, ‘Lord, Lord, did we not prophesy in your name, and cast out demons in your name, and do many mighty works in your name?’ And then will I declare to them, I never knew you; depart from me, you workers of lawlessness."

[@Esico6]

You can give your worries to the Lord as its said by Jesus. I did it and he took my worries in a heartbeat. God is great.

[@GizmoFromPizmo]

I hate to do this to you because it's not fair and kind of off-topic but James wrote one of THE MOST anxiety producing verses of the bible: "Now to him that knows the good he ought to do and does not do it, to him it is sin." (See James 4:17) If that verse doesn't keep you under eternal condemnation then NOTHING will. Who can honestly say that he's doing everything he can 24/7? It's the stuff of psychosis. Indeed, God Himself cannot save you from such sin. John talks about the "sin unto death". I think James defines it. Paul talks about freedom from sin but James is the master of putting you right back in bondage.

[@NCSiebertdesign]

@@Esico6 I can say the same! I had "lost" my job in a strange circumstance 4 months ago and it had made me anxious and worried about my future. But I remember the Lord will always take care of us which made me choose to trust in Him. In my time of struggle with trusting and worrying like on and off switch and lots of tears, I was reading psalms to remind me how great God is and He will take care and provide to those who put faith in Him. While unemployed, I was being provided small income as a freelancer. Now I have got the full time job after few months. It was not a easy journey but having faith make it so worth it. So praise and glory be to God!

[@kidkaeppel763]

@@GizmoFromPizmo "Who can Honestly say he's doing everything he can, 24/7? It's the stuff of psychosis. Indeed, God Himself cannot save you from such sin." I'm sorry you believe that. I think that Jesus teaches otherwise. "Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for someone who is rich to enter the kingdom of God.” When the disciples heard this, they were greatly astonished and asked, “Who then can be saved?” Jesus looked at them and said, “With man this is impossible, but with God all things are possible.” Matthew 19:24‭-‬26 NIV Nobody can do their all 24/7. That's the entire point of Jesus coming to save us- because we ourselves cannot. James 2:10 says anyone who breaks even one part of the law is guilty of breaking all of it. Paul writes that the wages of sin is Death but God's gift is eternal life in Jesus. Peter writes that Jesus bore our sins in His body on the cross. Jesus paid for all sin, once for all. James' point here is not "If you miss your chance to do something good you're eternally condemned". His point is to encourage us to live out our faith in our actions. If you've been forgiven and loved by Jesus, and you love Him and call Him Lord, you'll serve Him by serving those in need. I pray that you find encouragement in the Gospel, and be free from your anxiety.

The letter of St. James is my favorite place in scripture, and that’s tough to claim as there is so much to love. But James - Jacob - is a great floor plan for living a Christian life. I know it by heart because I read it everyday before my evening reading of the Holy Bible (wherever I am at the time) and it’s always uplifting. Before my morning reading I always latch onto a Psalm. Is not our Lord God magnificent? This presentation of St. James is a delight and I’m glad you made it. Peace to you.

Each hair HAS A NUMBER assigned to it by God! Only He could do such a thing. But I was feeling pretty alone and depressed and I saw my hair that had fallen out after washing it. I was reminded of that verse. So instead of being sickened by seeing that hair I began thinking about it. And when we’re under more stress our hairs fall out more! Then deep inside me I felt God tell me that hair not only has a number, but I think about you so much that I KNOW what you were stressed about that caused that hair to come out too soon! Then the heavy… He told me I have been counting your hairs since you were in your Mothers womb. I’ve counted every hair you’ve ever had 1,2,3, all the way to today. That hair has a number that I have assigned to it! Haha I thought He only counted the stars or things in the heavens! His thoughts towards us is… awesome! We really just need to KNOW this God who Loves us So Much. Cuz I can tell you too God has been counting your hairs and He KNOWS those things that you’ve been stressing you out!

[@Stacey505]

Have you looked at Numbers in the King James bible?

[@SylvEdu]

I'm afraid not. There is a lot of debate as to the relationships Jesus had with the rest of his family because of ambiguous Greek and Aramaic wording and idioms. For instance, they describe James (Jacob) in this video as being Jesus' half-brother, assuming him to be a younger son of Mary and Joseph. The earliest traditions reject this, though, and the Catholic and Orthodox churches consider it blasphemy. Other proposals are that James was an older step-brother of Jesus -- Joseph's son by another marriage, from which he became a widower. Still another proposal is that James was a cousin of Jesus by Joseph's brother Clopas and his wife "the other Mary." It wouldn't be the first time a cousin is referred to as a brother in the Bible, because the scriptures use the same word to describe literal brothers as well as cousins, nephews, uncles, and other kinsmen.

[@meowgaetan7159]

If you read 1 Chronicles, it lists the genealogy that leads to Jesus. Just not entirely to the end to when Jesus is born. But the first 5 books of NT should say a lil bit more of it as well.

@kacangbumbu987 perfectly put. People seem to forget the fact that Mary and Joseph were Jewish... Actually, that Jesus and his disciples were Jewish. Peter had a mother in law so he was married... Mary and Joseph were engaged and, in that the time and context, why would they not have any other children? But why those details aren't mentioned in the books? Well, I don't think knowing who Jesus second or third brother is important to our salvation xD Maybe in the coming kingdom we will all know something~

This make reading the Bible fun (or at least interesting and a lot less of a chore that I 'should' do). There are some hard parts and a lot of sad, offensive and outrageous parts of the Bible. Just like there's sad, offensive and outrageous people in the world. At times the Bible is hard to understand and trying to fit one part to the next part, or to the previous part gets confusing. It's really nice to have these videos. Sometimes the simplest is the best.

Hey guys, I love your videos especially the ones on general topics of the Bible, they are beautiful and deep. Thank you for that. But this morning I stubble upon this one and usually I don't watch those but earlier I've actually been led to read the book of James and I had mixed feelings about it, lots of questions etc... and your video brought peace to my heart and understanding to my brain. You guys have been to me like Philip was to the Ethiopian. Thank you a lot. I needed your video this morning. :)

ISAIAH 59 - JAMES “So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and His glory from the rising of the sun; when the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him. (Isaiah 59:19) WORDS BY: JESUS "The normal Christian life consist of many testings and it is your job as a believer to count it a joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that you will be blessed with the crown of life when you faithfully endure to the end. The purpose of all testings is to increase you in every way spiritually and physically that you may become pure as gold refined by fire. However, many do not make it through fiery trials because they are not faithful to uphold My truth in everyday matters. Your response to daily temptations is a good indication of what your response will be when the enemy comes in like a flood. If you are complacent, careless and casual about righteousness you will be swallowed up by darkness, for faith without works is dead. This is why being a doer of the word is vitally important and if there is no practical action in your life, then there is no overcoming nor crown that awaits you. When the enemy comes in like a flood I will lift up a standard against him. That standard is not for the compromised but the faithful. To be part of it then you must question, are you living up to My standards? Can I look at your life and be pleased or do you know deep down there’s more you can be? My desire is for you to receive your crown; but the enemy’s desire to rob you of it. Who are you going to listen to? Be faithful to stand strong in the truth you know, remembering that out of the tongue comes blessing or cursing. Resist the devil and he will flee from you, knowing that every trial is but for a time. Seize them as opportunities to grow and increase from and watch as you see the outpouring of blessings come flooding through for you."

Glory be to God for this wonderful lesson. Truly a beautiful letter by Jaakov

[@charlysage8642]

Thoroughly enjoy the narration and renderings...one suggestion, huge...the royal Torah law is summed up as "love your neighbor...as your self." Don't leave off "as your self"...people who do not know how to love themselves envaribly project their pain unto others in the form of control, manipulation, willfulness, and the like...that is not love, it is actions born out of fear and anxiety. To love the self is to love the entire self, including the dark/shadow side, own it, embrace it, understand it and have self-compassion with it. To deny it, keeps it alive and creates a person living a double life, a split self always struggling for authenticity. Don't overlook "as yourself." Keep up the good work!

This is my favorite epistle because James states outright that what we do is just as important as what we believe. The other apostles don't deny this but James makes it very clear.

[@JustNeshTV]

Thank you for this video! I love the book of James. It's definitely a hard pill to swallow. Be blessed you all.❤️️

[@hebrewkazu]

This is hands down my favorite book of the New Testament because of the purpose it accomplishes. Everybody who somehow gathered the idea that the law was done away would find this book to be a whole stumbling block to their doctrine; right when they thought they were free to walk however they wanted James summoned the Word of obedience back to our memory right when it was needed. 💥

[@kerrinbressant7642]

I think at some point in our lives we all try to find out "niche" or "reason for being in life." As Christians we may specifically describe it as our "calling" in life. What an outstanding video this is and very timely as my bible study group and congregation is discussing the Book of James. I have seen the 2 Timothy video - another masterpiece. Well done to the creators of these videos and God bless you all in your endeavors of spreading "The Word!"

[@StoneDontKnowMe]

I grew up catholic but I no longer am, I don’t have a religion I have a relationship with Christ. I went to Catholic school to ten years and I got taught the Bible a different way. Now I’m doing my own bible studies myself and a separate one with my best friend. I’m still trying to separate my catholic beliefs from the actual truth from God. I was taught that Mary was a Virgin and Jesus had zero siblings. Can someone please help me out on this one cause I’m very confused. Thank you and love all these videos❤️

[@nunesandrew4198]

Lovely to know Kate, welcome to the pilgrim to heaven, endure, be holy, and love everyone and the Lord Jesus

[@yoyohanaBR]

The catholic church teaches that Jesus did not have brothers to support the belief that Mary was an immaculate (virgin) saint. But think about the context of the time → Mary was engaged to Joseph, both Jews, and received the message that she would be the mother of the Messiah. Okay, she had the Messiah and through a miracle of the Holy Spirit, which made her give birth even if she was a virgin. But she did not remain a virgin. After all, she was engaged to Joseph, and we all know how the marriage was consummated in the past. Moreover, we have the fact that for a jewish woman, especially at that time, it was an honor to have many children. How can Mary, a Jewish married woman, not have other children? The gospels and biblical historians also can confirm Jesus' other (half) brothers. Hope you can keep your Bible studies and I pray to the Lord that he can show himself more and more through his beautiful word Here a little verse from Hoseah 6: 3 to encouraging: “So let us know and become personally acquainted with Him; let us press on to know and understand fully the [greatness of the] Lord [to honor, heed, and deeply cherish Him]. His appearing is prepared and is as certain as the dawn, And He will come to us [in salvation] like the [heavy] rain, Like the spring rain watering the earth.” Sorry for any mistakes, English is not my first language! Stay in peace!
