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

do you pay attention to the one who is finely dressed and say, "You sit here in a good place," and to the poor person, "You stand over there," or "Sit on the floor"?

and one of you says to them, "Go in peace, keep warm and eat well," but you do not give them what the body needs, what good is it?

But someone will say, "You have faith and I have works." Show me your faith without works and I will show you faith by my works.

And the scripture was fulfilled that says, "Now Abraham believed God and it was counted to him for righteousness," and he was called God's friend.

For we all stumble in many ways. If someone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect individual, able to control the entire body as well.

Or do you think the scripture means nothing when it says, "The spirit that God caused to live within us has an envious yearning"?

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

Come now, you who say, "Today or tomorrow we will go into this or that town and spend a year there and do business and make a profit."

You ought to say instead, "If the Lord is willing, then we will live and do this or that."
