(1.00) | Jam 2:21 | Was not Abraham our father justified by works when he offered Isaac his son on the altar? |
(1.00) | Jam 2:22 | You see that his faith was working together with his works and his faith was perfected by works. |
(1.00) | Jam 2:24 | You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone. |
(1.00) | Jam 2:25 | And similarly, was not Rahab the prostitute also justified by works when she welcomed the messengers and sent them out by another way? |
(1.00) | Jam 2:26 | For just as the body without the spirit is dead, so also faith without works is dead. |
(1.00) | Jam 3:1 | Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers and sisters, 1 because you know that we will be judged more strictly. 2 |
(1.00) | Jam 3:2 | For we all stumble 1 in many ways. If someone does not stumble 2 in what he says, 3 he is a perfect individual, 4 able to control the entire body as well. |
(1.00) | Jam 3:5 | So too the tongue is a small part of the body, 1 yet it has great pretensions. 2 Think 3 how small a flame sets a huge forest ablaze. |
(1.00) | Jam 3:6 | And the tongue is a fire! The tongue represents 1 the world of wrongdoing among the parts of our bodies. It 2 pollutes the entire body and sets fire to the course of human existence – and is set on fire by hell. 3 |
(1.00) | Jam 3:13 | Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct he should show his works done in the gentleness that wisdom brings. 1 |
(1.00) | Jam 3:14 | But if you have bitter jealousy and selfishness in your hearts, do not boast and tell lies against the truth. |
(1.00) | Jam 3:16 | For where there is jealousy and selfishness, there is disorder and every evil practice. |
(1.00) | Jam 3:17 | But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, accommodating, 1 full of mercy and good fruit, 2 impartial, and not hypocritical. 3 |
(1.00) | Jam 3:18 | And the fruit that consists of righteousness 1 is planted 2 in peace among 3 those who make peace. |
(1.00) | Jam 4:4 | Adulterers, do you not know that friendship with the world means hostility toward God? 1 So whoever decides to be the world’s friend makes himself God’s enemy. |
(1.00) | Jam 4:7 | So submit to God. But resist the devil and he will flee from you. |
(1.00) | Jam 4:11 | Do not speak against one another, brothers and sisters. 1 He who speaks against a fellow believer 2 or judges a fellow believer speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but its judge. 3 |
(1.00) | Jam 4:13 | Come now, you who say, “Today or tomorrow we will go into this or that town 1 and spend a year there and do business and make a profit.” |
(1.00) | Jam 5:1 | Come now, you rich! Weep and cry aloud 1 over the miseries that are coming on you. |
(1.00) | Jam 5:3 | Your gold and silver have rusted and their rust will be a witness against you. It will consume your flesh like fire. It is in the last days that you have hoarded treasure! 1 |
