But let him ask in faith, without any doubting, for he who doubts is like a wave of the sea, driven by the wind and tossed.

For let that man not think that he will receive anything from the Lord.

He is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.

But let the brother in humble circumstances glory in his high position;

and the rich, in that he is made humble, because like the flower in the grass, he will pass away.

Blessed is the man who endures temptation, for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord promised to those who love him.

Let no man say when he is tempted, "I am tempted by God," for God can't be tempted by evil, and he himself tempts no one.

But each one is tempted, when he is drawn away by his own lust, and enticed.

Of his own will he brought us forth by the word of truth, that we should be a kind of first fruits of his creatures.

For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man looking at his natural face in a mirror;

for he sees himself, and goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.

But he who looks into the perfect law of freedom, and continues, not being a hearer who forgets, but a doer of the work, this man will be blessed in what he does.

If anyone among you thinks himself to be religious while he doesn't bridle his tongue, but deceives his heart, this man's religion is worthless.

Listen, my beloved brothers. Didn't God choose those who are poor in this world to be rich in faith, and heirs of the Kingdom which he promised to those who love him?

For whoever keeps the whole law, and yet stumbles in one point, he has become guilty of all.

For he who said, "Do not commit adultery," also said, "Do not commit murder." Now if you do not commit adultery, but murder, you have become a transgressor of the law.

What good is it, my brothers, if a man says he has faith, but has no works? Can faith save him?

Wasn't Abraham our father justified by works, in that he offered up Isaac his son on the altar?

and the Scripture was fulfilled which says, "Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him as righteousness;" and he was called the friend of God.

So the tongue is also a little member, and boasts great things. See how a small fire can spread to a large forest!

But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble."

Be subject therefore to God. But resist the devil, and he will flee from you.

Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded.

Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and he will exalt you.

Don't speak against one another, brothers. He who speaks against a brother and judges his brother, speaks against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law, but a judge.

You have condemned, you have murdered the righteous one. He doesn't resist you.

Behold, we call them blessed who endured. You have heard of the patience of Job, and have seen the Lord in the outcome, and how the Lord is full of compassion and mercy.

and the prayer of faith will heal him who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up. If he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.

Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it might not rain, and it didn't rain on the earth for three years and six months.

He prayed again, and the sky gave rain, and the earth brought forth its fruit.

let him know that he who turns a sinner from the error of his way will save a soul from death, and will cover a multitude of sins.
