James:1:2-18
rkjnt@James:1:2 @ My brethren, count it all joy when you encounter various trials;
rkjnt@James:1:3 @ Knowing that the trying of your faith produces endurance.
rkjnt@James:1:4 @ And let endurance have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking nothing.
rkjnt@James:1:5 @ If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men liberally, and without reproach; and it shall be given him.
rkjnt@James:1:6 @ But let him ask in faith, without wavering. For he who wavers is like a wave of the sea driven by the wind and tossed.
rkjnt@James:1:7 @ Let not that man think that he shall receive anything from the Lord,
rkjnt@James:1:8 @ For a double-minded man is unstable in all his ways.
rkjnt@James:1:9 @ Let the brother of humble circumstances rejoice that he is exalted:
rkjnt@James:1:10 @ And the rich, that he is made humble: because like the flower of the grass he shall pass away.
rkjnt@James:1:11 @ For the sun has no sooner risen with a burning heat, but it withers the grass, and its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. In the same way shall the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursuits.
rkjnt@James:1:12 @ Blessed is the man who endures trial: for when he has stood the test, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love him.
rkjnt@James:1:13 @ Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted by God: for God cannot be tempted with evil, nor does he tempt any man:
rkjnt@James:1:14 @ But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away and enticed by his own lust.
rkjnt@James:1:15 @ Then when lust has conceived, it brings forth sin: and sin, when it is fully-grown, brings forth death.
rkjnt@James:1:16 @ Do not be deceived, my beloved brethren.
rkjnt@James:1:17 @ Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shifting shadow.
rkjnt@James:1:18 @ By his own will he brought us forth with the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first-fruits of his creatures.
