Description
A Commentary on James by David Pawson explores the letter of James to the dispersed Messianic believers of his day. Written in excellent Greek, yet reflecting Hebrew wisdom, this circular approach returns repeatedly to fundamental topics such as wealth, prayer and speech. At its core, faith is not just a thought or feeling, but an action that must be taken. Without being acted upon, it is dead and cannot save. This emphasis on 'faith-works' provides a vital balance to the New Testament concept of faith, complementing Paul's censure on law-works.
