Kootenai Church: James

Many professing Christians evaluate their love for Jesus based on their feelings for and emotions about Him. We see in today’s text, though, that our love for Jesus is measured by our obedience to His Word. An exposition of James 1:22-25.

In today’s text, James instructs his readers to be quick to hear, slow to speak, and slow to anger. There is much more to this than it may at first appear. An exposition of James 1: 19-21.

In this rich passage, we see the confluence of God’s goodness, immutability, and sovereignty. His gifts to us continually flow down up to and including that of our own regeneration. An exposition of James 1:17-18.

Being tempted in and of itself is not a sin. Left unchecked, however, temptation brings forth sin and sin brings forth death. If we are not diligent to kill sin, it will kill us. An exposition of James 1:13-16.

It is likely easy for us to see how poverty can be a trial, but did you know that wealth is also a trial for the believer? Both poverty and wealth present unique trials and unique temptations. An exposition of James 1:9-11.

James promises us that if we ask God for wisdom in the midst of trials, God will answer that prayer. An exposition of James 1:5-8.

Trials are inevitable in this fallen world. They are not enjoyable, but we can count them as joy. We will look at the purpose of trials and the good fruit that can come from them. An exposition of James 1:2-4 as taught by Justin Peters.
