SAB, Good Stuff in James

James
Introduction

"Be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath." 1:19
"Pure religion ... is this, To visit the fatherless and widows in their affliction, and to keep himself unspotted from the world." 1:27
The rich should not be treated better than the poor. 2:2-4
"Love thy neighbor as thyself." 2:8
Help others that are in need; don't just wish them well. This is good advice, though it's unfortunate that James restricted this help to "brothers". Did he mean by this that you only need to help fellow believers? 2:15-16
James ridicules those who say salvation is by faith alone. He says the devils believe in God. Will their faith save them? 2:19
"Speak not evil of one another." 4:11
Don't judge other people. 4:12
"Ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away." (All we are is dust in the wind.) 4:14
Workers should be treated fairly. 5:4
