DAN 25 OD 25

 PROPRIETY, PATIENCE, & PRAYERS 

 James concludes his letter by calling his reader to action. As a new faith, the Christianity of his day was still in a fragile state. A lot of people still had a lot of questions, and a lot of people were influenced by their previous beliefs or prevailing superstitions. James reminds his readers that they need to be watchful of one another, making sure that that none will fall back to their previous sinful nature that will cause death.

In this present day, our faith and beliefs continue to be poked, questioned, and challenged. Therefore, it is important that we as believers stick together, encourage one another, and look out for each other. While the world seems to champion individuality and individual achievements, Christianity is always about community. You can choose to be a Christian alone but you can never live as a Christian alone. 

Dan 24

O ovom planu

Journal ~ James

For James, Christians (that is, followers of his half-brother) should reflect the character of their God. And what we find in this letter is not works and more works as sometimes thought to be. On the contrary it is a letter infused by God’s character, with the intention of making God-shaped people living in the world.
