James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, To the twelve tribes in the Dispersion: Greetings
|
James 1:1
|
|
Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds for you know that thte testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and compete, lacking in nothing.
|
James 1:2
|
|
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him. But let him ask in faith with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed to the wind. For that person must not suppose that he will recevie anything form the Lord: he is a double-mnded man, unstable in all his ways.
|
James 1:5-8
|
|
Let the lowly borhter boast in his exaltation, and the rich in his humiliation, because like a flower of the grass he will pass away. For the sun rises with its scorching heat and withers the grass; its flower falls, and its beauty perishes. So also will the rich man fade away in the midst of his pursits.
|
James 1:9-11
|
|
Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the dcrown of life, which God has promised to those whoh love him.
|
James 1:12
|
|
Let no one say when he is tempted, "I am being tempted by God," for God cannot be tempted with evil, and he himself tempts no one. But each person is tempted when he is lured and enticed by his own desire. Then desire when it has conceived gives birth to sin, and sin when it is fully grown brings forth death.
|
James 1:13-15
|
|
do not be deceived, my beloved brothers, Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change. Of his own will he brought us forth by the owrd of truth that we should be a kind of firstfuits of his creatures.
|
James 1:16-18
|
|
Know this, my beloved brothers: let every person be quick to hear, slow to speak, slow to anger, for the anger of man does not produce the righteousness of God. Therefore put away all filthiness and rampant wickedness and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
|
James 1:19-21
|
|
But be doers of the word, and not hearers onlhy, deceiving yourselves. For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man who looks intently at his natural face in a mirror.
|
James 1:22-23
|
|
for he looks at himself and goes away and at once forgets what he was like. But the one who looks into the perfect law, the law of liberty, and perserveres being no hearer who forgets, but a doer who acts, he will be blessed in his doing.
|
James 1:24-25
|
|
If anyone thinks he is religious, and does notbridle his tounge, but deceives his heart, this person's religion is worhtless. Religion that is pure and undefiled before God the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their affliction, and to keep oneself unstained formt he world.
|
James 1: 26-27
|
|
have you not then made distinctions amnong yourselves and become judges with evil thoughts? listen my beloved brothers, has not God chosen those who are poor in the world to be rich in faith and heirs of the kingdom, which he has promised to those who love him? But you have dishonored the ppor man. Are not the rich the ones who oppress you, and the ones who drag you into court? Are they not the ones who blaspheme the honorable name by which you were called?
|
James 2:4-6
|
|
If you really fulfill the royal law according to the Scripture, You shall love your neighbor as yourself, you are doing well. But if you show partiality, you are committing sin adn are convicted by the law as ransgressors. For whoever keeps the whole law, but fails in one point has become accountable for all of it.
|
James 2:6-10
|
|
for he who said, "Do not commit adultery, also said, "Do not murder." If you do not commit adulter but do murder, you have b ecome a transgressor of the law. So speak and so act as t hose who are to be judged under the law of liberty. For judgment is without mercy to one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
|
James 2:11-13
|
|
What good is it, my brothers, if someone says he has faith, but does not have works? Can that faith save him? If a brother or sister is poorly clothed and lackin in daily food, adn one of you says to them, "God in peace, be warmed and filled," without giving them the things needed for the body, what good is that? So also faith by itself, it if does not have works is dead.
|
James 2:14-17
|
|
and teh Scripture was fulfilled that says, "Abrahame believed God, and it was counted to him as righteousness-- and he was called a friend of God. You see that a person is justified by works and not by faith alone.
|
James 2:23-24
|
|
And in the same way was not also Rahab the prostitute justified by works when she received the messengers and sent them out by another way? For as the body apart from the spirit is dead, so also faith apart from works is dead.
|
James 2:25-26
|
|
Not many of you should become teachers, my brothers, for you know that we who teach will be udged with greater strictness.
|
James 3:1
|
|
For we all stumble in many ways. and if anyone does not stumble in what he says, he is a perfect man, able also to bridle his whole body. If we put bits into the mouths of horses so that they obey us, we guide their whole bodies as well. Look at the ships also: thought they are so large and are driven by atong winds, they are guided by a very small rudder wherever the will of the pilot directs. So also the tongue is a small member, yet it boasts of great things.
|
James 3:2-6
|
|
How great a forest is set ablaze by such a small fire! and the tongue is afire, a world of unrighteousness. The tongue is set among our members, staining the whole body, setting on fire the entire course of life, and set on fire by hell. For every kind of beast and bird, of reptile and sea creature, can be tamed as has been tamed by mankind, but no human being can tame the tongue. It is a restless evil, full of deadly poison.
|
James 3:5-8
|
|
From the same mouth come blessing and cursing. My brothers, these things ought not to be so. Does a spring pour forth from the smae opening both fresh and salt water? Can a fig tree, my brothers, bear olives, or a grapevine produce figs? neither can a salt pond yield fresh water.
|
James 3:10-12
|
|
Who is wise and understanding among you? By his good conduct let him show his works in th emeekness of wisdom. But if you have bitter jealousy and selfish ambition in you hearts, do not boast and be false to the truth. This is not the wisdom that comes down from above, but is earthly, unspiritual, demonic. For where jealousy and selfish ambition exist, there will be disorder and every vile practice. But the wisdom from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, open to reason , full of mercy and good fruits, impartial and sincere. and a harvest of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.
|
James 3:13-18
|
|
What causes quarrels and what causes fights among you? Is it not this, that your passions are at war within you? you desire and do not have, so you murder. You covet and cannot obtain, so you fight and quarrel. You do not have because you do not ask.
|
james 4:1-2
|
|
You ask and do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your passions. You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a afriend of the world makes himself an enemy of God, or do you suppose it is to no purpose that the Scripture says, "He yearns ealously over the spirit that he has made to dwel in us?
|
James 4:4-5
|
|
But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, "God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble."
|
James 4:6
|
|
Submit yourselves therefore to God. 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.
|
James 4:8
|
|
Be wretched and mourn and weep. Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joy to gloom. Humble yourselves before the Lord, and he will exalt you.
|
James 4:9
|
|
Do not speak evil agains tone another, brothers. The one ewho speaks against a brother or judges his brother, speaks evil against the law and judges the law. But if you judge the law, you are not a doer of the law but a judge. Their is only one lawgiver and judge, he who is able to save and to destroy. But who are you to judge your neighbor?
|
James 4:11-12
|
|
Come now, you who say, "Tomorrow we will go into such and such a town and spen a year ther and trade and make a profit--yet you do not know what tomorrow will bring. What is your life? for you are a mist that appears for a little time and then vanishes. Instead you ought to say, "if the Lord wills we will live and do this or that"
|
James 4:13-15
|
|
As it is, you boast in your arrogance. All such boasting is evil. So whoever knows the right thing to do and fails to do it, for him it is sin.
|
James 4:16-17
|
|
Come now, you rich, weep and howl for the iseries that are ocming upon you. Your riches have rotted and your garments are moth-eaten. Your gold and silver have corroded and their corrosion will be evidence against you and will eat your flesh like fire. You have laid up treasure in the last days.
|
James 5:1-3
|
|
Behold the wages of the laborers who mowed your fields, which you kept back by fraud, are crying out against you, and the cries of the harvesters have reached the ears of the Lord of hosts. You have lived on the earth in luxury and in self-indulgence. You have fattened your hearts in a day of slaughter. You have condemned and murdered the righteous person. He does not resist you.
|
James 5:4-6
|
|
Be paitient, therefore , borthers, until the coming of the Lord, Se how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lor is at hand.
|
James 5:7-8
|
|
Do not grumble against one another, brothers, so that you may not be judged, behold, the Judge is standing at the door. As an example of suffering and patience, brothers, thake the prophets who spoke in the name of the Lord. Behold, we consider those blessed who remained steadfast. You have heard of the steadfastness of Job,a nd you have seen the purpose of the Lord, how the Lord is compassionate and merciful.
|
James 5:9-11
|
|
But above all, my brothers, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or by any other oath, but let your "yes" be yes and your "no" be no, so that you may not fall under condemation.
|
James 5:12
|
|
Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing praise. Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for the elders of the church, adn let htem pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord.
|
James 5
|
|
And the prayer of faith will save the one whoi s sick,and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
|
James
|
|
Therefore confess your sins to one another and pray for one another, that you may be healed.
|
James
|
|
The prayer of a righteous person has great power as it is working. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed fervventlyt hat it might not rain, and for three years and six months it did not rain on the earth. The he prayed again,and heave giave rain adn the earth bore its fruit.
|
James
|
|
My brothers, if anyone among you wanders from the truth and someone brings him back, let him know that whoever brings back a sinner form his wandering will save his sould from death, and willcover a multitude of sins.
|
James
|
|
Long ago, at many times an in many ways, Gd spoke to our fathers by th eprophets, but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. He is the radiane of the glofy of god and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
|
Hebrews 1:1-4
|
|
Are they not all ministering spirits sent out to serve for the sake of those who are to inherit salvation?
|
Hebrews 1:14
|
|
Therefore we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, lest we drift away from it. For since the message declared by angels proved to be reliable and every transgression or disobedience received a just retribution, how shall we escape if we neglect such a great salvation?
|
Hebresws 2
|
|
Now in putting everything in subjection t ohim, he left nothing outside his control. At present, we do not yet see everything in subection to him. But we see him who for a little while was made lower than the angels, namely Jesus, crowned with glory andhonor because of the suffering of death, so that by the grace of God he might taste death for everyone.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Since thereeforee the children share in flesh and blood, he himself likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is the devil and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.
|
Hebrews
|
|
For surely it is not angels that he helps, but he helps the offspring of Abraham. Therefore he had to be made like his brothers in every respect, so that he might become a merciful and faithful high priest in the service of God, to make propitiation for the sinsn of the people.
|
Hebrews
|
|
For because he himself has suffered when tempted, he is able to hlep those who are being tempted.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Therefore, holy brothers, you who share in a heavenly calling, consider Jesus, the apostle and high priest of our confession, who was faithful to him who appointed him, just as oses also was faithful in all God's house.
|
Hebrews
|
|
For Jesus has been counted worthy of more glory than Moses--as much more glory as the builder of a house has more honor than the house itself. (For every house is built by someone, but the builder of all things is God.)
|
Hebrews
|
|
Now Moses was faithful in all God's house as a servant, to testify to the things that were to be spoken later, but Christ is faithful over God's house as a son. And we are his house if indeed we hold fast our confidence and our boasting in our hope.
|
Hebrews 3:5-6
|
|
Take care, brothers, lest there be in any of you an evil, unbelieving heart, leading you to fall away from the living God. But exhort one another every day, as long as it is called "today," that none of you may be hardened by the deceitfulness of sin.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
For who were those who heard and yet rebelled? WAs it not all those who left Egypt led by Moses? And with whom was he provoked for forty years? Was it not with those who sinned, whose bodies fell in the wilderness? And to whom did he swear that they wouldl not enter his rest, but to those who were disobedient? So we see that they were unable to enter because of unbelief.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Therefore, while the promise of entering his rest still stands, let us fear lest any of you should seem to have failed to reach it. For good news came to us ust as to them, but the message they heard did not benefit them, becuase they were not united by faith with those who listened.
|
Hebrews
|
|
For if Joshua had given them rest, God would not have spoken of another day later on. So then, there remains a Sabbath rest for the people of God, for whoever has entered God's rest has also rested from his works as God did from his.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
Let us therefore strive to enter that rest, so that no one may fall by the same sort of disobedience. For the word of God is living and active, sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing to the division of soul and spirit, of joints and of marrow, and discernging the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And not creature is hidden from his sight, but all are naked and exposed to the eyes of him to whom we must give account.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Since then we have a great high priest who has passed through the heavens, esus, the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a high priest who is unable to sympathize with our weaknesses, but one who in every respect has been tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us then with confidence draw near to the throne of grace, that we may receive mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
Although he was a son, he learned obedience through what he suffered. And being made perfect, he became the source of eternal salvation to all who obey him, being designated by God a high priest after the order of Melchizedek.
|
Hebrews
|
|
About this we have much to say, and it is hard to explain, since you have become dull of hearing. For though by this time you ought to be teachers, you need someone to teach you again the bais principles of the oracles of God. You need milk, not solid food, for everyone who lives on milk is unskilled in the word of righteousness, since he is a child. But solid food is for the mature, for those who have their powers of discernment trained by constant practice to distinguish good from evil.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Therefore let us leave the elementary doctrine of Christ and go on to maturity, not laying again a foundation of repentance from dead works and of faith towrad god and of insturction about wahsings, the laying on of hands, the resurrection of the dead and eternal judgment.
|
Hebrews
|
|
And this we will do if God permits.
|
Hebrews 6:3
|
|
For it is imossible, in the case of those who have once been enlightened, who have tasted the heavenly gift, and have shared in the Holy Spirit, and have tasted the goodness of the word of God and the powers of the age to come, and then have fallen away, to restore them again to repentance,since they are crucifying once again the Son of God to their own harm and holding him up to contempt.
|
Hebrews
|
|
For land that has drunk the rain that often falls on it, and produces a crop usefult o those for whose sake it is cultivated, receives a blessing from God. But if it bears throns and thisltes, it is worhtless and near to being cursed, and it send is to be burned.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
For God is not unjust so as to overlook your work and the love that you have shown for this name in serving the saints, as you still do And we desire each one of you to show the same earnestness to have the full assurance of hope until the end, so that you may not be sluggish, but imitators of those who through faith and patience inherit the promises.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
For when God made a promise to Abraham, since he had no one greater by whom to sear, he swore by himself, saying, "Surely I will bless you and miltiply you." And thus Abraham having patiently waited, obtained the promise.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
so that by two unchageable things, in which it is impossible for God to lie, we who have fled for fefuge might have strong encouragement to hold fast to the hope set before us.
|
Hebrews
|
|
We have this as a sure and steadfast anchor of the soul, a hope that enters into the iner place behind the curtain, where Jesus has gone as a forerunner on our behalf, having become a hight preist forever after the order of Melchizedek.
|
Hebrews
|
|
It is beyond dispute that the inferior is blessed by the superior.
|
Hebrews 7:7
|
|
For on the one hand, a former commandment is set aside because of its weakness and uselessness (for the law made nothing perfect) but on the other hand, a beeter hope is introduced through which we draw near to God.
|
Hebrews
|
|
This makes Jesus the guarantor of a better convenant.
|
Heb. 7:22
|
|
The former priests were many in number, because they were prevented by death from conintuing in office. be he holds his priesthood permantently, becuase he continues forever.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Consequently, he is able to save to the uttermost those who draw near to God through him, since he always lives to make intercession for them.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Indeed under the law almost everything is purified with blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness of sins.
|
Hebrews
|
|
And just as it is appointed for man to die once adn after that come judgment, so Christ having been offered once to bear the sins of many will appear a second time, not to deal with sin but to save those who are eagerly waiting for him.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
Therefore brothers, since we have confidence to enter teh holy places by the blood of Jesus, by the new and living way that he opened for us through the curtain, that is, through his flesh, and since we have a great priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a ture heart in full assurance of faith, with our hearts sprinlked clean from an evil conscience and our bodies washed with pure water
|
Hebrews
|
|
Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another,anad all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
It is a fearful thing to fall into the hands of the living God.
|
Hebrews10:31
|
|
But we are not of those who shrink back and are destroyed, but of those who have faith and prserve their souls.
|
Hebrews
|
|
But recall the former days when after you were enlightened, you endured a hard sturggle with sufferings, sometimes being publicly exposed to reporach and affliction, and sometimes being partners with those so treated. For you had compassion on those in prison and you joyfully accepted the plundering of your property, since you knew that you yourselves had a better possession and an abiding one. Therefore do not throw away your confidence, which has a great reward.
|
Hebrews
|
|
For you have need of endurcance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised.
|
Hebrews
|
|
See that you do not refuse him who is speaking. For if they did not escape when they refused him who warnedd them on earth, much less will we escape if we reject him who warnes from heaven.
|
hebrews
|
|
Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken, and thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe, for our God is a consuming fire.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
this phrase, "yet once more" indicates the removal of things that are shaken--that is things that have been madee in order that the things that cannont be shaken may remain.
|
Hebrews.
|
|
Let bortherly love continue. Do not neglect to show hospitality to strangers for thereby some have entertained angels unawares.
|
Hebrews
|
|
remeber those in prison as though in preison with thm and those who are mistreated, since you also are in the body.
|
Hebrews
|
|
Let marriage be held in honor among all, and let the marriage bed be undeflied, for God will judge the sexually immoral and adulterous. Keep your life free from love of money and be content with what you have, for he has said, "I will never leave you nor forsake You"
|
Hebrews
|
|
Remember your leaders, those who spoke to you the word of God. Consider the outcome fo their way of life and imitate their faith
|
Hebrews
|
|
Jesus Chrsit is the same Yesterday, today, and forever
|
Hebrews
|
|
so Jesus also suffered outside the gate i order to sanctify the people by his own blood
|
Hebrews
|
|
Through him then let us continually offer up a scarifice of praise to God that is the fuit of lips that acknowledge his name
|
Hebrews
|
|
Do not neglect to do good and to share what you have, for such sacrifices are epleasing to God
|
Hebrews
|
|
Obey your leaders and submit to them, for they are keeping watc over your souls as those who will have to give an account
|
Hebrews
|
|
Pray for us, for we are sure that we have a clear conscience, desiring to act honorably in al things. I urge you the more earnestly to do this in order that I may be restored to you the sooner
|
Hebrews
|
|
Now may the God of peace who brought again from the dead our Lord Jesus, the great shepherd of the sheep, by the blood of the eternal covenant, equip you with everything good that you may do his will, working in us that which is pleasing in his sight, througth Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever. Amen
|
Hebrews
|
|
I appeal to you, brothers, bear with my word of exhortation, for I have written to you briefly. You should know that our brother Timothy has been released, with whom I shall see you if he comes soon. Greet all your leaders and all the saints. Those who come from Italy send you greetings. Grace be with all of you.
|
Hebrews
|
|
To those who are elect exiles of dispersion in Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia, according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, in the santification of the Spirit, for obedience to Jesus Christ and for sprinkling with his blood: May grace and peace be multiplied to you.
|
1 Peter 1
|
|
Blessed be the God and the Father of our Lord Jesus Chrsit! According to his great mercy, he has caused us to be born again to a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you.

|
Jude
|
|
Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delievered to the saints. For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation
|
Jude
|
|
Now I want to remind you, although you once fully knew it, that Jesus, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe.

|
Jude
|
|
Keep yourself in the love of God, waiting for mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. And have mercy on those who doubt; save others by snatching them out of the fire...

Jude
|
|
Now to him who is able to keep from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of this glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord...

With respect to this they are surprised when you do not join them in the same flood of debauchery, and they malign you, but they will give account to him who is ready to judge the living and the dead. For that is why the gospel was preached even o those who are dead, that though judged in the flesh the way people are, they might live in the spirit the way God does.
