01 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God-Resist temptation-Be doers of the word-James explains how to recognize pure religion.
02 God has chosen the poor of this world who are rich in faith-Salvation is gained by keeping the whole law-Faith without works is dead.
03 By governing the tongue, we gain perfection-Heavenly wisdom is pure, peaceable, and full of mercy.
04 Wars are born of lusts-The friends of the world are the enemies of God-Sin is failure to walk in the light we have received.
05 Misery awaits the wanton rich-Await the Lord's coming with patience-The elders are to anoint and heal the sick.
