Nuggets from James Flashcards
James 1:2-3
My brethren, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience.
James 1:5
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
James 1:12
Blessed is the man who endures temptation; for when he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
James 1:13-15
Let no one say when he is tempted, “I am tempted by God”; for God cannot be tempted by evil, nor does He Himself tempt anyone. But each one is tempted when he is drawn away by his own desires and enticed. Then, when desire has conceived, it gives birth to sin; and sin, when it is full-grown, brings forth death.
James 1:17
Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning.
James 1:19
So then, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath.
James 1:22
But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
James 1:25
But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does.
James 1:26
If anyone among you thinks he is religious, and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his own heart, this one’s religion is useless.
James 1:27
Pure and undefiled religion before God and the Father is this: to visit orphans and widows in their trouble, and to keep oneself unspotted from the world.
James 2:10
For whoever shall keep the whole law, and yet stumble in one point, he is guilty of all.
James 2:13
For judgment is without mercy to the one who has shown no mercy. Mercy triumphs over judgment.
James 2:19
You believe that there is one God. You do well. Even the demons believe—and tremble!
James 2:26
For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also.
James 3:8
But no man can tame the tongue. It is an unruly evil, full of deadly poison.
James 4:2-3
…you do not have because you do not ask. You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss, that you may spend it on your pleasures.
James 4:6
God resists the proud, but gives grace to the humble.
James 4:7-8
Therefore submit 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 4:10
Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He will lift you up.
James 4:14
For what is your life? It is even a vapor that appears for a little time and then vanishes away.
James 5:12
But above all, my brethren, do not swear, either by heaven or by earth or with any other oath. But let your “Yes” be “Yes,” and your “No,” “No,” lest you fall into judgment.
James 5:13
Is anyone among you suffering? Let him pray. Is anyone cheerful? Let him sing psalms.
James 5:15
And the prayer of faith will save the sick, and the Lord will raise him up. And if he has committed sins, he will be forgiven.
James 5:16
Confess your trespasses to one another, and pray for one another, that you may be healed. The effective, fervent prayer of a righteous man avails much.
