Lesson 3028

Lesson (3028)(04-15-20) James 1:1
    “ James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting.”
   
    Today’s lesson is to make note that James wrote this letter, (the book of James), expressly to the Jews. I make that clear because James, as was related through his contention with Paul, (Galatians 2:11-13), held a certain disdain for the gospel as Paul preached it to the Gentiles. James was clearly one who believed that elements of the old law should be imposed upon those Gentiles who came to believe in Jesus. In my opinion, anything that was written by James should be read with his ultimate ideals in mind.~
